Xpath not clicking on button even though it is visible

[robocop]

Hi,

I am trying to click on an options but cannot. When I run the script below it picks the correct link but it still will not click on it. The link are visible only when the previous one is clicked and so on, It works fine up to the last menu_1033 where it does not find ti and instead clicks on
another link unrelated to this one. I have tried everything to get the option and I am wondering if this is an issue with webdriver 2.44 or something/ 



 driver.findElement(By.id("menu_1028")).click();
                    driver.findElement(By.id("menu_1029")).click();
                    driver.findElement(By.id("menu_1030")).click();
                    driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(20, TimeUnit.SECONDS);
                    String test1=driver.findElement(By.id("menu_1033")).getText();
                    System.out.println(test1);


If you need any other info let me know

thanks

I wonder if placing a wait in between your clicks would help?

We could do with a public copy of the webpage to look at if you really want help.

If you suspect it is a problem with v2.44, have you tried with earlier versions of webdriver for the same functionality and had it working with exactly the same code tp prove that it ONLY fails with v2.44?

I have tried in a couple of previous version and still no joy. I would really appreicate if you could help me on this so I have attached the complete webpage, fingers crossed that you can assist with this


thanks

Hi,

I would also like to point out that it click on the report overtime/reason instead of absence/trend even though the xpath is clearly correct and should click on the trend report

thanks

Your attached html just shows a set of static links.

We'd need to see working it exaclty as you describe , so that we can click on one element and others get enabled.

may be instead of xpath, use either id or css or name or linkText.
