Selenium::WebDriver::Error::ElementNotDisplayedError Happening ONLY for I.E. automated tests

Hi I'm testing an application using the Selenium::Webdriver API.

I have an issue that only appears to be effection IE 7/8 which run fine on Chrome and Firefox.

When I try to click on a menu link in IE I get the (Selenium::WebDriver::Error开发者_如何学编程::ElementNotDisplayedError) error.

This issue is only present in IE8 but must be resolved as the business only supports IE8, officially, so my automated tests must work under that browser.

Any suggestions?

Thanks, Loga

Have you tried with today's release (version 2.1.0)?

From the blog:

There are also some bug fixes in the Firefox and IE WebDrivers, particularly when dealing with elements that are just off screen

The fact that it is a display error means it could be related
