...> another line under this.... ==$0 \\\"element text\\\" ... <span id............

 please help me on this if possible

Answer 1

The information is not that clear but the basic snippet for mouseover is:

 

Actions action = new Actions(driver);

WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.id("elementId"));

action.moveToElement(element).perform();

If you see this snippet then you can easily get through your html page and you can find your element Id.
