i am trying to record actions performed in the Firefox browser using Selenium IDE. I observed that for recorded scripts, the default language in source tab is HTML. As i wanted to have scripts in java, i got into Options->format in menu bar but i do not see Java listed in there. I could only see HTML, Ruby, python and C#. Could you please help me in generating/converting scripts in java?

It seems you do not have (or have but deactivated) Selenium Java plugin installed for your IDE.

  1. If you're using Selenium 1.x version, then go to Selenium IDE->Options->Options and check Enable experimental features
  2. Alternatively, try installing the latest stable version from here

You can also check what's installed from Selenium IDE->Options->Options->Plugins tab

EDIT:

For recording options in Java, please see the below settings in the screenshot

Thank you. It worked, i have selected java formatters in the java plugins page, now i am able to export recorded test cases in java language. But still i see that recorded script are in HTML format.
I am using Selenium IDE 2.4.0 *. I tried changing in clipboard format as java but still the script is in HTLM. Could you please help me solve this one too.
@Srekk I have added the screenshot for that too, basically I just get formats option within Options menu and if I select Java, it throws and initial warning of being an experimental feature and then carries on with the recording
Thanks PopoFibo. I did that.
