How to select a item on a really long drop down list on a webpage

Asked by Bear

I'm trying to get sikuli to select a specific item on a dropdown list of over 500 items on a webpage.

So far i have it pressing EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE for example to finally getting to the item on the dropdown. But sadly the item changes each time So i have to either remove or add an extra E to select another item on the list. Is there a work around.

The dropdown doesn't offer the ability to type in the item and select. This is a very old website.

If I were you, I use Selenium WebDriver with SikuliX.
When I want to count items of dropdown list, I will use Selenium WebDriver API.

Can you help with this problem?
