C# Selenium webdriver button click

I am trying to click this button through Selenium web driver but it whatever I try, it says cannot find element.
<a class="button" href="#" id="enrollForm">ENROLL NOW</a>
I tried
driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//*[#id='enrollForm']")).Click();
Update:
This is the whole snippet. I want to click on the button "Enroll Now":
<div class="buttonContainerLanding">
<div class="buttonDiv">
<a class="button" href="#" id="enrollForm">ENROLL NOW</a>
</div>
<div class="buttonDiv">
<!-- <b class="buttonTitle">Need to Activate Your Card?</b> -->
<a class="button" href="#" id="activate">ACTIVATE CARD</a>
</div>
<div class="buttonDiv">
<!-- <b class="buttonTitle">Need to Activate Your Card?</b> -->
<a class="button" href="#" id="replace">REPLACE CARD</a>
</div>
</div>

To click on the element with text as ENROLL NOW you can use either of the following solutions:
Using LinkText:
driver.FindElement(By.LinkText("ENROLL NOW"));
Using CssSelector:
driver.FindElement(By.CssSelector("div.buttonContainerLanding div.buttonDiv>a.button#enrollForm"));
Using XPath:
driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//div[#class='buttonContainerLanding']//div[#class='buttonDiv']/a[#id='enrollForm' and text()='ENROLL NOW']"));

Traverse C# collection from CSHTML in JQUERY

My View(cshtml) has around 10 div tags at root level.
Each div has nested multiple div inside it.
The HTML code is below. As there is foreach loop, i have multiple such DIV
foreach(var result in results)
{
<div class="itemRow" id= value data-List=#invoiceDetail>
<div class="itemStatus paid"><span>Paid</span></div>
<div class="itemDetails" style="display: none;">
<div class="itemContainer">
<div class="left"> <table class="stripes"> </div>
</div>
<div class="itemContainer" id="_orderId"> <h4>Order details</h4> </div>
<div class="itemContainer">
<div class="left"> <strong>Download PDF</strong></a> </div>
<div class="right"> You can download paper invoice </div>
</div>
<div class="border hundra"><div></div></div>
</div>
</div>
}
Each div at root has an attribute data-List from server side. This attribute has a c# Collection as value. I need to read the value from data-List attribute of that particular div and traverse through it.
I tried to use the .attr method but what i received the data type of the collection.
Please suggest a way forward.
Thanks in advance.

Regexp to extract inner content of a html tag

I'm looking for a regex that extracts the content of a html tag. In this case, I need to extract and parse the content of a div element. The HTML code inside the div element can be anything and I need to extract all.
I'm using the next regexp, but doesn't work in all cases.
<div\s+id="body"[^>]*>(?<PARAM1>(?:(?:(?!<div[^>]*>|</div>).)+|<div[^>]*>[\s\S]*?</div>)*)</div>
It doesn't works because extracted group PARAM1, stops in a closing div tag element before the desired one, and I can't found why.
The HTML looks like this:
(...any HTML...)<div id="body">
<div class="container">
<ul class="breadcrumb">...SOME <li><p>....
</ul>
<h1>...</h1>
<div class="row">
<div class="span8">
<dl class="dl-horizontal">
<dt>...</dt>
<dd>..</dd>
<dt>..</dt>
<dd>..</dd>
</dl>
<hr/>
<dl class="dl-horizontal">
<dt>..</dt>
<dd>..</dd>
</dl>
</div>
<div class="span4">
<p class="text-center">
<img ...>
</p>
</div> **(STOPS HERE)**
</div>
<div> .... ANY HTML </div>
</div> (...more HTML...)
Thanks in advance,

Linq to xml - access deep element

In C# i need to access element that is nested in many other elements. I could write a query by naming all of elements but that would be very time consuming. Is there any easy way to do this or maybe some generator?
for example i have a xml:
<div id="list_offers">
<div class="container">
<div id="header">
<div class="row">
<div class="space-on-sides">
<div class="sixteen columns relative">
<div class="logo">
<a href="/">
<img src="/images/design_resp/design/logo_profesia.png" width="113" height="76" alt="PROFESIA.SK - práca, zamestnanie, ponuky práce, brigáda, voľné pracovné miesto" title="PROFESIA.SK - práca, zamestnanie, ponuky práce, brigáda, voľné pracovné miesto" />
</a>
</div>
<div class="right-panel">
<a class="login-company small red button nice radius right hide-on-phones margin-on-left" title="Vstup pre firmy" href="/login_person.php?action=company_login">Vstup pre firmy</a>
<a class="login-company small red button nice radius right show-on-phones margin-on-left" href="/login_person.php?action=company_login">Firmy</a>
<a rel="nofollow" id="login_modal" class="small gray button nice radius right" title="Prihláste sa do konta" href="/login_person.php?action=login">Prihlásiť</a>
<div class="search">
<div class="relative hide-on-phones">
<form name="fulltextsearch" id="fulltextsearch" action="/search.php" method="get" onsubmit="if(document.getElementById('search').value=='HÄľadanie') return false; return true;" class="nice" />
<input name="which_form" type="hidden" value="simple" />
<input name="tab_name" type="hidden" />
<input name="search_anywhere" type="text" id="search" placeholder="HÄľadanie" tabindex="1" class="input-text expand" />
<input name="submit_search_simple" type="image" src="/images/design_resp/design/blank.png" alt="HÄľadaĹĄ" class="ico search-nosprite" /></form>
</div>
<div class="show-on-phones">
<a title="HÄľadajte ponuky práce podÄľa rĂ´znych kritĂ©riĂ">
</a>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row-header-favorite">
<div class="header-favorite">
<a title="Moje vybrané pracovné ponuky" class="ico-shopping-cart-toppanel" rel="nofollow" href="/user_details.php?action=show_my_offers&ref_top_panel=157">0</a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
and i need access:
input name="tab_name" type="hidden"

You can use Linq to xml
var xDoc = XDocument.Load(pathToXmlFile); //XDocument.Parse(xmlstring);
var input = xDoc.Descendants("input")
.First(i=>(string)i.Attribute("name")=="tab_name");
XPath can be used too
var input = xDoc.XPathSelectElement("//input[#name='tab_name']");

If you need to access that element on server side, you'll need to add a runat attribute there (like this: runat="server"), to make it a server side control. I would strongly suggest making it a control of your page, then, so you can access it like any other variable. You would have to give it an ID, so at the very least you could fetch it through that property.
But! your problem seems to be more client side related, so I strongly, really strongly suggest you use jQuery instead. Get jQuery in your site, and it becomes as easy as:
$("input[name='tab_name']");
Or better yet, if you give it an ID:
$("#idYouGaveTotheField");

C# RegEx - find html tags (div and anchor)

I have to retrieve several div section (of specific class name "row ") with it's content, and additionally find all anchor tags (link urls) (with class "underline red bold").
Shortly speaing : get section of:
<div class = "row ">
... (divs, tags ...)
<a class="underline red bold" href="/searchClickThru?pid=prod56534895&q=&rpos=109181&rpp=10&_dyncharset=UTF-8&sort=&url=/culture-and-gender-intimate-relation-ksiazka,prod56534895,p">
and
collections of urls
string[] urls = {"/searchClickThru?pid=prod56534895&q=&rpos=109181&rpp=10&_dyncharset=UTF-8&sort=&url=/culture-and-gender-intimate-relation-ksiazka,prod56534895,p"}
the entire page looks like that:
<html>
... a lot of stuff
<div class="row ">
<div class="photo">
<a rel="nofollow" href="/searchClickThru?pid=prod56534895&q=&rpos=109181&rpp=10&_dyncharset=UTF-8&sort=&url=/culture-and-gender-intimate-relation-ksiazka,prod56534895,p">

Can anybody help me to create suitable reg ex?

Regular expressions are not well suited for this.
Due to the nested nature of HTML, a regular expression that does what you ask would be very (very very) long and complicated. Use a HTML Parser instead.

The answer to this question is roughly the same as the answer to this question:
RegEx match open tags except XHTML self-contained tags

Alternatively, if you've managed to get into LINQ and like the power of LINQ, there appears to be a LINQ-to-HTML Library available for download. I haven't tried it yet, so I cannot speak to its ability.

Check out the HTML Agility Pack
This is an agile HTML parser that
builds a read/write DOM and supports
plain XPATH or XSLT (you actually
don't HAVE to understand XPATH nor
XSLT to use it, don't worry...). It is
a .NET code library that allows you to
parse "out of the web" HTML files. The
parser is very tolerant with "real
world" malformed HTML. The object
model is very similar to what proposes
System.Xml, but for HTML documents (or
streams).

Is it NECESSARY to use regular expressions? If not, then why don't you use an HTML parser like Html Agility Pack... it will be MUCH easier to get what you want if you use a parser instead of regular expressions.
