C# Selenium: Click button under iframe

Question

I have a iframe modal under my site. I am trying to click button in it but I am unable to do so. Below is my code. Please let me know what am i missing

driver.SwitchTo().Frame(driver.FindElement(By.Id("iframeid='frame_name'"))); 
driver.FindElement(By.Id("sendReuqest")).Click();

Expected Result: Button id: sendRequest should get clicked which is on iframe

Actual Result: Element is not found.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Please next time considering to ask unrelated questions separately. — drets

I mean 2 different questions: 1) click button inside frame 2) check total time to load a grid, does it answer your question? Thanks! — drets

Both are related to one thing which is Selenium Automation which I added as title of my question as well. I will remove one question. And will ask that in my seperate post. Thanks!! — user1413

Try to do it this way. Let's take frame_name id as iframe_1. Whatever you frame id is you can add instead of iframe_1. Also you have a spelling mistake (typo) it might be sendRequest so I am adding as id of your button.

driver.SwitchTo().Frame(driver.FindElement("iframe_1"))); 
driver.FindElement(By.Id("sendRequest")).Click();

Hope it works. Please do comment and let us know.

Best of luck.

Yes, now I am able to click that button but I am facing another problem. Steps is to open that frame,click on button, frame closes,then it clicks on another button. When button is clicked on that frame and then frame gets closed but now not able to click on next button

I am receving this error: Element not found in the cache - perhaps the page has changed since it was looked up

It looks like you're trying to use By.Id() when you should be using By.CssSelector(). By.Id() expects you to pass a parameter which matches the ID element in the HTML.

driver.SwitchTo().Frame(driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("[iframeid='frame_name']"))); 
driver.FindElement(By.Id("sendReuqest")).Click();

sendReuqest also doesn't look like a valid id.

Try that one:

driver.SwitchTo().Frame("frame_name"); 
driver.FindElement(By.Id("sendReuqest")).Click();
