Not able to click on the webpage Link using HtmlUnitDriver but Same is working with FirefoxDriver. Why?

When I am trying to click on the Link using below line of code using FirefoxDriver it is working fine.

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.findElement(By.linkText("More...")).click();

But when i use HtmlUnitDriver then i am getting below exception.

Is it possible that the link is not present on the initial load of the page, and added subsequently using JavaScript? If so, you might was to check that you have JavaScript enabled when you create the HTMLDriver instance: WebDriver driver = new HTMLUnitDriver(true);
