Getting NullReferenceException

[rahulwagh]

Hi,
Below is what I am doing -

private void Example()
{
  try
  {
   HtmlDocument htmlDocument=webBrowser1.Document;
   HtmlElement newApplication=htmlDocument.GetElementById("menu:StartupPage_NewApplication_NewApplication_Consumer");

//On below line it is throwing exception
newApplication.InvokeMember("Click");
}

Probably newApplication is still null at that point because

GetElementById("menu:StartupPage_NewApplication_NewApplication_Consumer" );

didn't find what it was looking for. You can put Console.WriteLi nes to see if that is the case.

Hi,
Thanks for youe reply.
NewApplication is the menu on one webpage. I am opening the webpage using the webbrowser control and after that trying to click the "NewApplication " option.

Still you are getting the NullReference because GetElementById is not finding anything. So check that your syntax for locating the element is correct and the names match according to the method's standards.
