java - Selenium Unable to Find Element - Stack Overflow

I am trying to find an element on a website using Selenium. The page I am looking at is:

.aspx?TabId=1470&Alias=Rainbow&Lang=en-US

Specifically I am trying to find the element for the "Last Name" input box and send keys in Java. the html looks like this for the text box:

<div class="field">
<input id="ctl62_txtSearchLastName" type="text" maxlength="36" name="ctl00$ctl62$txtSearchLastName">
</div>

Therefore, I initially attempted to get the element through the id which is unique:

WebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
driver.get(timeSearchSite);
...
driver.findElement(By.id("ctl62_txtSearchLastName")).sendKeys(lastName);

However this generated the following error:

Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException: Unable to find element with id == ctl62_txtSearchLastName (WARNING: The server did not provide any stacktrace information)

I also tried to use the name which failed similarly. Since this is a javascipt page I thought that I might need to wait before trying to access the element. I tried an explicit and an implicit wait and both resulted in timeouts. My next thought was that I was in the wrong frame but I cannot seem to find another frame. I tried indexing since I don't have names but I couldn't locate any other frames. There is this at the top of the page which might be messing selenium up:

<noscript><iframe src="//www.googletagmanager/ns.html?id=GTM-WMWM93" height="0" width="0"           
style="display: none; visibility: hidden"></iframe></noscript>

What could be causing this error? How can I locate the element? Any help would be greatly appreciated/

• does it work for you with chrome and firefox? or is IE only failing? – Josh Engelsma Commented Jan 8, 2015 at 3:50

Using an explicit wait worked for me (tried both chrome and firefox):

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
WebElement element = wait.until(
    ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.id("ctl62_txtSearchLastName"))
);

element.sendKeys("test");
