    1. COTry setting [IE protected mode](http://jimevansmusic.blogspot.com.au/2012/08/youre-doing-it-wrong-protected-mode-and.html) to the same across the security zones, and setting `IntroduceInstabilityByIgnoringProtectedModeSettings = false`. Also, does your code work in earlier versions of IE?

    2. COThis particular error has been covered a lot in the past: http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=3719 ...it appears that many things can cause it, but to begin with, **definitely** do as @Faiz said.

    3. COAlso, is your `pageLoadTimeout` used for the `Timeouts()`, greater than 60secs, which is the default webdriver timeout? If so, I would think the webdriver will time out like it does now before the others.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
