Otherwise, if the control has the DropDownButton style, the method fails and posts an error message to the test log. The style of the WinDropDownButton can be determined with the native Style property of the control.

For YUI 2 Split Button controls: a click is simulated on the button part of the control. To open or close the control’s drop-down window, call the CloseUp and DropDown methods.
