public static void main(String[] args) {
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(); //object created to start firefox driver

Actions action = new Actions(driver); // object created to perfomr mouse operation

driver.get("http://demo.lateralcode.com/css-drop-down-menus/"); // open url

WebElement home = driver.findElement(By.linkText("Home")); // find home menu

action.moveToElement(home).build().perform(); //put mouse pointer on Home menu

List we = home.findElements(By.xpath("//*[@id='menu']/ul/li[1]/ul/li")); // common property of all sub menu item

Selenium : - Code to Login into drobbox.com

Code to Open dropbox.com & login is as follows - 

WebDriver driver; //declare object of WebDriver

driver = new FirefoxDriver(); //create object reference of Firefox driver

driver.get("http://dropbox.com"); //open dropbox.com

String parent = driver.getWindowHandle(); //read & store windows handle of parent browser

driver.findElement(By.linkText("Sign in")).click(); //click on Sing In link

//Switch to new window opened

for(String winHandle : driver.getWindowHandles()){ //iterate through all window open

   driver.switchTo().window(winHandle); //put focus to child browser window

}

driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("*[id='login_email']")).sendKeys("hello");//enter email

driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("*[id='login_password']")).sendKeys("hello"); //enter password

Selenium : How to switch to Web Dialog window & back to Parent Browser Window

Steps are as follows -

           1.  Before clicking the link, get the handle id of the browser window.
                  String BrowserParent = driver.getWindowHandle();

     2.  After clicking the link & once Web Dialog is opened
                 String str = driver.getWindowHandle();
                 driver.switchTo().window(st); // switch to child browser

     3.  Once the operation on the web dialog box is completed.    
                driver.switchTo().window(BrowserParent); //return back to Browser window
