Answer 1

Executing a click via webdriver has sometime unexpected behaviors.If its not working then alternate way JavascriptExecutor class to do this. Its always preferable to use click() method of the WebElement.

WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.cssSelector(".btn.btn-main.dropdown-toggle"));
JavascriptExecutor executor = (JavascriptExecutor)driver;
executor.executeScript("arguments[0].click();", element);
