Other element would receive the click: a id="habla_oplink_a" class="habla_oplink_a_normal hbl_pal_header_font_size hbl_pal_title_fg " What I need to understand is how I can scroll to a certain point of the page so that my script can resume filling out the survey on the page. This is my code that manages to fill out a portion of the survey but fails when it reaches a row which is not in view inside the
