Drop down box selenium

I have a drop down box with the id = PoolsSelect. I am trying to select the value within that drop down box but I'm getting an error, here is my code:

 RenderedWebElement element = (RenderedWebElement) driver.findElement(By.id("PoolsSelect"));
 RenderedWebElement target = (RenderedWebElement) driver.findElement(By.name("Austria"));

 element.dragAndDropOn(target);

and the 开发者_运维问答error I get is

Error: Unable to find element by name using "PoolsSelect" (7)

I am using selenium 2.07a with JUnit 4.8.2.

You say the id of the select is PoolsSelect but yet you're using a By.name selector. Have you tried selecting by id?
