    You can click on the menu based on the text present in the menu. Here is some samples,

    Search Menu item--

    driver.findElement(By.xpath("//a[contains(text(),'Search')]//parent::li")).click();

    Member menu item --

    driver.findElement(By.xpath("//a[contains(text(),'Member')]//parent::li")).click();
