 # Current versions of Selenium are so silly that if an action on the page
 # results in a new tab being opened, the browser will switch to the new tab,
 # but the selenium driver will still think the old tab is visible, so if you
 # try to access elements on the old tab, they will fail with 'element not visible'
 # errors.

 # One way to fix this is to explicitly switch to the new tab and close it
 # (if you have an element that will close the tab).
