Selenium 2.0b3 IE WebDriver, Click not firing

Question

When using the IE driver with IE9, occasionally the Click method will only select a button, it wont do the action of the Click(). Note this only happens occasionally, so i d

Answer 1

After a bit more searching i found two things that seem to have helped in repeatable tests:

First i added an ImplicitlyWait of 5 seconds. Not sure if this is applied to all FindElement functions, but I have stopped getting most of the NoSuchElementException i was getting.

OpenQA.Selenium.IE.InternetExplorerDriver driver = new OpenQA.Selenium.IE.InternetExplorerDriver();
driver.Manage().Timeouts().ImplicitlyWait(new TimeSpan(0, 0, 0, 5, 0));
//driver.Manage().Speed = Speed.Medium;

Second i was having trouble with a Logout function and changed the code to:

public LoginPageObject Logout() {
    Driver.FindElement(By.LinkText("Logout")).Click();

    OpenQA.Selenium.Support.UI.IWait wait = new OpenQA.Selenium.Support.UI.WebDriverWait(Driver, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(5));
    IWebElement element = wait.Until(driver => driver.FindElement(By.Name("username")));

    LoginPageObject lpage = new LoginPageObject(Driver);
    return lpage;
}

The explicit wait seems to handle what the ImplicitlyWait doesn't catch (i think because of redirects).
