It seems that i found the reproducable case. Check this issue https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/issues/2421

The point is in this javascript instruction:

var Number="рпоп";

Note, that if you write "number" (first small letter) - it will be working. It seems the problem is in incorrect javascript code parsing.

I don't think the error is caused by erroneous code on your part. I tried upgrading to IEDriverServer 2.50 today and started receiving the same error. I returned to using 2.48 as a temporary workaround. Other newer versions may work between the two, this is just what I used previously.

Also see this recent issue on the project's Github page: https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/issues/1590

Try to turn protected mode on IE

  1. Click/tap on tools on the menu bar, and Internet Options
  2. In the Security tab, select every zone and turn off protected mode

else can you write the main's code
