Not clicking hyperlink with long text

When i try to click an hyperlink with a long text nothing happens.

await page.waitForSelector('#ct01');
await page.click('#ct01'); 

Working: <td><a id="ct01" href="javascript:window.open(URL,'RecoverPassword','width=700,height=450');">TEST</a></td>

Not Working: <td><a id="ct01" href="javascript:window.open(URL,'RecoverPassword','width=700,height=450');">TTT - TTTTTTTTTT TTT TTTTTTTTT T TTTTTTTTTTTT TTTTTTTTTTT TTTTT</a></td>

• Puppeteer version: puppeteer@1.4.0
• Platform / OS version: Windows 7
• Node.js version: 9.10.1

Anybody knows why? And a possible solution to this?

@ziadali1 this is fixed on tip-of-tree puppeteer; try installing puppeteer@next and using page.click with this long link.

Closing as dupe of #2798.

I can think of two ways, with an additional argument or with a template string:

    let selector = 'a';
    page.evaluate((selector) => document.querySelector(selector).click(), selector);

or

    let selector = 'a';
    page.evaluate(`document.querySelector('${selector}').click()`);
