http://samples.msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/samples/author/dhtml/refs/showModalDialog2.htm

I don't know how to get element on modal Dialog

Answer 1

Use

following methods to switch to modelframe

driver.switchTo().frame("ModelFrameTitle");

or

driver.switchTo().activeElement()

Hope this will work

Answer 2

What you are using is not a model dialog, it is a separate window.

Use this code:

private static Object firstHandle;
private static Object lastHandle;

public static void switchToWindowsPopup() {
    Set<String> handles = DriverManager.getCurrent().getWindowHandles();
    Iterator<String> itr = handles.iterator();
    firstHandle = itr.next();
    lastHandle = firstHandle;
    while (itr.hasNext()) {
        lastHandle = itr.next();
    }
    DriverManager.getCurrent().switchTo().window(lastHandle.toString());
}

public static void switchToMainWindow() {
    DriverManager.getCurrent().switchTo().window(firstHandle.toString());
