Google search input text box

Question

I am trying to visit "https://www.google.co.in" and want to enter the word "Googling" in the input text box and then click on the search button. The input text box has id "gs_htif0".

This statement is not working

driver.findElement(By.id("gs_htif0")).sendKeys("Googling");

This is working fine.

driver.findElement(By.name("q")).sendKey("Googling");

Answer 1

It seems you tried incorrect id. Please check with :

driver.findElement(By.id("lst-ib")).sendKeys("Googling");
