How select the gender in registration form by selenium 2.0?

Question

I want to create a bot, which will be registrate accounts in gmail. I have problem with selecting the month of birth. I'm programming on C# using Selenium 2.0.

Source code of this "complicated" part.

    <legend><strong id="BirthdayLabel">Birthday</strong></legend>
  <label id="month-label" class="month">
  <span aria-invalid="true" class=" form-error" id="BirthMonth"><div aria-activedescendant=":0" title="Birthday" aria-haspopup="true" tabindex="0" aria-expanded="false" style="-moz-user-select: none;" role="listbox" class="goog-inline-block goog-flat-menu-button jfk-select"><div aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="12" role="option" id=":0" class="goog-inline-block goog-flat-menu-button-caption">Month</div><div aria-hidden="true" class="goog-inline-block goog-flat-menu-button-dropdown">&nbsp;</div></div><input id="HiddenBirthMonth" name="BirthMonth" type="hidden"></span>
  </label>

I do it like this:

var txtBirMon = Driver.FindElementById("month-label");
Actions action = new Actions(Driver);
action.ClickAndHold(txtBirMon).SendKeys(OpenQA.Selenium.Keys.Enter);

First I doing it another way:

txtBirMon.Click();
txtBirMon.SendKeys(OpenQA.Selenium.Keys.ArrowUp);
txtBirMon.SendKeys(OpenQA.Selenium.Keys.Enter);

But it's not focusing on txtBirMon and just scroll down the page... But it doesn't work. What I doing wrong?

That's because you are not performing the actions:

action.ClickAndHold(txtBirMon).SendKeys(OpenQA.Selenium.Keys.Enter).Perform();

I have another question: Can I send more than 1 "Send Keys"? e.g. firstly I click "Arrow Up", secondly -> enter? – Kirill KZ Feb 05 '16 at 19:49
@KirillKZ yes, sure, you can chain the actions as much as you want. – alecxe Feb 05 '16 at 19:50
