I know this isn t JavaScript  but you can also physically use the mouse-click to click a dynamic Javascript anchor   public static void mouseClickByLocator  String cssLocator          String locator   cssLocator       WebElement el   driver findElement  By cssSelector  locator           Actions builder   new Actions driver        builder moveToElement  el   click  el         builder perform

Executing a click via JavaScript has some behaviors of which you should be aware  If for example  the code bound to the onclick event of your element invokes window alert    you may find your Selenium code hanging  depending on the implementation of the browser driver  That said  you can use the JavascriptExecutor class to do this  My solution differs from others proposed  however  in that you can still use the WebDriver methods for locating the elements      Assume driver is a valid WebDriver instance that    has been properly instantiated elsewhere  WebElement element   driver findElement By id  gbqfd     JavascriptExecutor executor    JavascriptExecutor driver  executor executeScript  arguments 0  click      element     You should also note that you might be better off using the click   method of the WebElement interface  but disabling native events before instantiating your driver  This would accomplish the same goal  with the same potential limitations   but not force you to write and maintain your own JavaScript
