title: Selenium ChromeDriver redirects back to blank "data:," page when trying to click element using JavaScript
body: <p>I have some code to try to deal with ChromeDriver failing to click on certain WebElements, however sometimes it seems to unexpectedly go to a blank page (with "data:," in the address bar), as if I had pressed the back navigation button.</p>
  
  <pre><code>try {
    webElement.click();
  }
  catch (WebDriverException e) {
    ((JavascriptExecutor) webDriver).executeScript("arguments[0].click();", webElement);
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm using the latest ChromeDriver (2.15.322448) on the latest Chrome (42.0.2311.135). Any idea why this might be happening?</p>
