Selenium element not visible

Question

I am trying to click on a close button to close a popup. However, I get the error element not visible. I am checking if the element exists in the page, but still the error comes up. The piece of code giving the error is

while(driver.findElements(By.className("ui_close_x")).size() < 0);
driver.findElements(By.className("ui_close_x")).get(0).click();
System.out.println("Clkd");

Where am I going wrong?

check the size of driver.findElements(By.className("ui_close_x")) - you can have more then one such element, and the first one (with index 0) can be not visible — mackowski

Try to use explicit wait with expected conditions

WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 10);
List<WebElement> elements = wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfAllElementsLocatedBy(By.className("ui_close_x")));
elements.get(0).click();
