Hi All,

I have tried to use this but keep getting this error. Can anyone help what wrong I am doing?

testUtility.dragAndDropElementForHTML5(".e-card-header-title.e-tooltip-text","tr > td:nth-of-type(2)");

Source element CSS: .e-card-header-title.e-tooltip-text
Destination element CSS: tr > td:nth-of-type(2)

public void dragAndDropElementForHTML5(String source, String target)
			throws Exception {
		String js_filepath = System.getProperty("user.dir") + "/src/test/resources/drag_and_drop_helper.js";
		String java_script = "";
		String text;

		BufferedReader input = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(js_filepath));
		StringBuffer buffer = new StringBuffer();

		while ((text = input.readLine()) != null)
			buffer.append(text + " ");
		java_script = buffer.toString();

		input.close();
java_script = java_script + "$('#" + source + "').simulate( '#" + target + "');";
		((JavascriptExecutor) getDriver()).executeScript(java_script);
}

Error:

@Rameshwar-Juptimath - You're using an incorrect css selector in either your source or target. You'll need to change the code to :

Old :

java_script = java_script + "$('#" + source + "').simulate( '#" + target + "');";

New :

java_script = java_script + "$('" + source + "').simulate( '" + target + "');";

@rookieInTraining - I tried with the above code but now I'm getting below exception

What if I don't have IDs for the elements? Is there any other way around?

@cnparmar Did you find a workaround for this?
