 <head>
   <title>Selection Inputs</title>
 </head>
 <body>
   <form>
     <label for="selector"> <!-- Can add label if want -->
       <p>A "select" element allows users to input from a selection:</p>
       <select id="selector"> <!-- Use "select" to create object -->
         <option>Option 1</option> <!-- Add all applicable options -->
         <option>Option 2</option>
         <option selected>Option 3</option> <!-- add selected to change default from first option -->
         <optgroup label="Group"> <!-- To create nested options for categories use "optgroup" -->
           <option>Option 4</option>
           <option>Option 5</option>
       </select>
     </label>
   </form>
 </body>
</html>

Example 5: html select

<label for="cars">Choose a car:</label>
<select name="cars" id="cars">
  <optgroup label="Swedish Cars">
    <option value="volvo">Volvo</option>
    <option value="saab">Saab</option>
    <option value="n/a" disabled>unavailable</option>
  </optgroup>
  <optgroup label="German Cars">
    <option value="mercedes" selected>Mercedes</option>
    <option value="audi">Audi</option>
  </optgroup>
</select>

Example 6: select dropdown

There are 2 dropdowns
1- HTML
2- SELECT

we determine what kind of dropdown it is
 -By tagName.We inspect.If it has <select> tag, it means it is <select> dropdown. 
 -If it is HTML, we can locate and click just as any other web element.
 
 I handle Select type of dropdown by using Select class from Selenium. 
    - Methods to select from dropdown:
        - selectByVisibleText
        - selectByValue
        - selectByIndex 
        
I verify which option is selected in a dropdown?
 - If we want to get the currently selected option, 
 we use getFirstSelectedOption() method.
        -> return type: currently selected option as a web element
        
--> .getOptions();
    -> This method will return all of the options in the <select> web element.
    -> return type: List<WebElement>
