• What is the reason you want to do this with Javascript when there are specific SeleniumLibrary keywords for this behaviour? – A. Kootstra Commented Jan 10, 2018 at 8:09
• Because when i use Click element keyword , i get the error WebDriverException: Message: unknown error: Element <table id="ext-p-1179" cellspacing="0" class="x-btn x-form-file-btn x-btn-icon">...</table> is not clickable at point (1165, 410). Other element would receive the click: <input id="image" name="image" class="x-form-file" type="file" accept=".jpg, .jpeg, .png" size="1">. so when google i see that it would work if i try it with javascript – Dani Commented Jan 10, 2018 at 8:14
• This sounds to me like the real problem you need to solve. There is an overlay on your element, or the ID is not as unique as you think. – A. Kootstra Commented Jan 10, 2018 at 8:33

Following this link Is there a way to get element by XPath using JavaScript in Selenium WebDriver? I have created a keyword for clicking hidden elements. It also works for visible elements.

JS Click Element
[Documentation]
...     Can be used to click hidden elements
...     Dependencies
...         SeleniumLibrary
...         String
[Arguments]     ${element_xpath}
# escape " characters of xpath
${element_xpath}=       Replace String      ${element_xpath}        \"  \\\"
Execute JavaScript  document.evaluate("${element_xpath}", document, null, XPathResult.ORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE, null).snapshotItem(0).click();

Use below code to click using javascript with XPath in robot framework

${ele}    Get WebElement    //*[text()='Logout']
Execute Javascript    arguments[0].click();     ARGUMENTS    ${ele} 

Instead of finding element and then passing to JS, you can directly find element by ID and click it using JS.

Execute JavaScript    document.getElementById("element-id").onclick()
