Answer 1

You should try using JavascriptExecutor
WebElement el = driver.findElement....;
JavascriptExecutor executor = (JavascriptExecutor)driver
executor.executeScript("arguments[0].click()", el);
Hope it will help you to perform click...:)

Answer 2

JavascriptExecutor click is an good option to avoid element is not clickable at point (xx,yy). Other element would receive the click.
ANother alternate that you can use is explicit wait for presence of that element

Answer 3

Possible solutions can be ..
1)Try to maximize the browser when you are working with resolutions greater than 1024x768.
driver.manage().window().maximize();
2) Using Actions Class
WebElement element = driver.findElement(By("element"));
Actions action = new Actions(driver);
action.moveToElement(element).click().perform();
3) using JavaScriptExecutor
WebElement el = driver.findElement(By("element"));
JavascriptExecutor executor = (JavascriptExecutor)driver
executor.executeScript("arguments[0].click()", el);
