# Frame.click() method
This method clicks the first element found that matches `selector`.
**Signature:**
```typescript
class Frame {
click(
selector: string,
options?: {
delay?: number;
button?: MouseButton;
clickCount?: number;
}
): Promise<void>;
}
```
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
| --------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| selector | string | the selector to search for to click. If there are multiple elements, the first will be clicked. |
| options | { delay?: number; button?: [MouseButton](./puppeteer.mousebutton.md); clickCount?: number; } | <i>(Optional)</i> |
**Returns:**
Promise&lt;void&gt;
## Remarks
This method scrolls the element into view if needed, and then uses [Page.mouse](./puppeteer.page.mouse.md) to click in the center of the element. If there's no element matching `selector`, the method throws an error.
Bear in mind that if `click()` triggers a navigation event and there's a separate `page.waitForNavigation()` promise to be resolved, you may end up with a race condition that yields unexpected results. The correct pattern for click and wait for navigation is the following:
```javascript
const [response] = await Promise.all([
page.waitForNavigation(waitOptions),
frame.click(selector, clickOptions),
]);
```
