In the IDE i am using typeKeys to enter email into email text box but the dot is being missed out

Hi,

In Selenium IDE when i record it does not capture what i am typing in the email and password text fields.

I found out to use the typeKeys command.

In the IDE for the following fields i have entered

Command = typekeys
Target = id="ctl00_uxContentPlaceHolderContent_uxEmailTextBox_uxEmailTextBox_textBox
Value = test1@test.com

When i playback the test the value in the email text box is appearing but it is missing out the dot

Why is it missing out the dot and how can i get it to include the dot?

It's ok i used type instead of typekeys now. It's picking up the dot in the email

But i have different problem now. When i select the company drop down field. The IDE sees it during the record but it won't capture the click when i click on a company from the drop down.

How can i capture this please?

Found out how to do it now. I used

Command = typekeys
Target = /default.aspx?companyid=33985
Value =

The value in the drop down is now selected, strange but it worked.
I right clicked on the element and the option open /default.aspx?companyid=33985
was there. So i tried it and it works as i wanted it to.
