Try to detect the csspath of the button using firebug. Also check if the login button is present inside a frame.HemChe– HemChe2013-04-19 06:26:58 +00:00Commented Apr 19, 2013 at 6:26

Can you use xpath?
//button[text()='EG']

Hey I tried with WebElement signin_button= driver.findElement(By.xpath("//button[text()='Sign In']")); but it did not workout :(

Of course the above XPath won't work because you are getting your HTML elements mixed up. You originally told us it's a
button, thus @TGH has given his solution above, which would work. What you've actually shown us, is a span (assume it is a span just styled to look like a button). So what is it exactly that you are trying to do?shravi
I solved that by using:driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("#loginForm>div>table>tbody>tr:nth-child(4)>td>div>span>span>span"));
