Question

Answer 1

In that case, you first have to perform that action which enables that element. After performing the action, you can use EplicitWait to wait till element clickable.

 

Once element is clickable, you can perform your action with it. Hope that helps.

 

In case your element is created using JQuery, it requires different treatment. Reply to this comment with the behaviour of your element.

yeah....will try your solution for implicit wait

I think you should try explicit wait. Implicit wait may not work to check if an element is clickable.
