org.openqa.selenium.StaleElementReferenceException: element is not attached to the page document while iterating through a List

问题

I don't know why this error shows up . Need help to fix it . Website i am working on :"http://freevideolectures.com/Course/3680/Pentaho-BI" . In this site

List<WebElement> cl = d.findElements(By.xpath("//ul[@class='lecture_menu']/li/a"));
System.out.println(cl.size());

for(int e=0 ; e<=cl.size()-1; e++) {                                    
        cl.get(e).click();// i think the error shows up here, the loop runs for e=0 ,                   
        Thread.sleep(1000);
        String q = d.findElement(By.xpath(".//*[@id='cs-about']/div/div[2]/div[2]/span/a")).getAttribute("href");
        System.out.println(q);          
}

The loop runs once for e=0 , i am getting the output for that . After this the error shows up . error: stale element reference: element is not attached to the page document. Help Please .

Here is the sample code which opens the WebBrowser with URL as http://freevideolectures.com/Course/3680/Pentaho-BI, browses through all the links By.xpath("//ul[@class='lecture_menu']/li/a"), opens each of them in a new Tab prints the href and closes the Tab :

    driver.get("http://freevideolectures.com/Course/3680/Pentaho-BI");
    List<WebElement> elementList = driver.findElements(By.xpath("//ul[@class='lecture_menu']//li/a"));
    ArrayList<String> hrefList = new ArrayList<String>();
    for(WebElement element:elementList)
        hrefList.add(element.getAttribute("href"));
    String firstTab =driver.getWindowHandle();
    for(String myhref:hrefList)
    {
        ((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript("window.open(arguments[0])", myhref);
        Set<String> windowHandles = driver.getWindowHandles();
        Iterator<String> itr = windowHandles.iterator();
        while(itr.hasNext())
        {
            String next_tab = itr.next();
            if(!firstTab.equalsIgnoreCase(next_tab))
            {
                driver.switchTo().window(next_tab);
                Thread.sleep(1000);
                String q = driver.findElement(By.xpath(".//*[@id='cs-about']/div/div[2]/div[2]/span/a")).getAttribute("href");
                System.out.println(q);
                driver.close();
                driver.switchTo().window(firstTab);
            }
        }

    }

The Output on my Console is :

Just break the loop when you find the element you want to click on it.

Reason is it is finding element even though that element is clicked. Use For -If Loop so when you get that element break it
