Java selenium select

Question

i'm trying for the past two hours to klick on "Herr". Would be great if you can help me guys.

Html

<div class="dropdown_box dropdown_box_anrede mandatory">
            <div style="display: block;" class="replace" id="anrede_select_replace">
                <div class="current" id="anrede_select_current">
                    <div class="text">Anrede</div>
                </div>
                <ul class="options" id="anrede_select_options" style="display:none;">
                    <li id="anrede_select_Herr"><div class="text">Herr</div></li><li id="anrede_select_Frau"><div class="text">Frau</div></li>
                </ul>
            </div>
        </div>

code right now

driver.findElement(By.xpath("//div[@id='anrede_select_current']/div']/div")).click();
driver.findElement(By.xpath("//li[@id='anrede_select_Herr']/div")).click();

Thanks

ul tag display is set to none, it is not visible, so all the enclosed li tags are also not visible. If it is not visible webdriver wont find it. — Grasshopper

You should try to click on <div> with id anrede_select_replace first then try using WebDriverWait to wait until option with id anrede_select_Herr getting visible as below :-

driver.findElement(By.id("anrede_select_replace")).click();

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
WebElement herr = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.id("anrede_select_Herr"));
herr.click();

You need to make it visible first by opening the dropdown

driver.findElement(By.className("dropdown_box_anrede")).click();
// or
driver.findElement(By.id("anrede_select_replace")).click();

And then you can click on the option
