Selenium with combo box control and select element
<p>The product which I am trying to automate has a customized combo box control from .Net.</p>

<p>The control is of type <code>&lt;input&gt;</code> and I will be able to type n search with the starting letter only.</p>

<p>When I try to access the <code>&lt;select&gt;</code> element using WebDriver , it says that the operation cannot be performed on an <code>&lt;input&gt;</code> field.</p>

<p>When i try to do a <code>.Sendkeys</code> on the <code>iWebElement</code> it will only be able to select values with starting text.</p>

<p>Is there any way to use WebDriver to select the combo box value using the whole text?</p>

<p>Sample DOM is in below format</p>

<pre><code>&lt;input name="icombobox_Text" tabIndex="7" title="Click to select theValue" class="ComboBox_Normal TxtBox_Css" id="icombobox_Text" accessKey="L" onkeydown="return C28.KeyDown();" onkeyup="return C28.KeyUp();" onkeypress="return C28.KeyPress();" onclick="$_('C28','TextClick')" onfocus="$_('C28','Focus')" onblur="$_('C28','Blur')" onselectstart="$_('C28','SelectStart')" onpaste="return false" oncontextmenu="return C28.KeyRightClick()" type="text" maxLength="255" maxSize="10" minSize="5" AUTOCOMPLETE="off"/&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>There are 4 items in the combo..How to select a particular value.?</p>
