It's failing because it goes stale. It goes stale because there is a
refresh on the page, the refresh on the page happens after the spinner that
the alert kicks off. The problem is that the element is located before the
spinner, and for it to work right now, you have to wait until after the
spinner to locate the element. However you organize it in the code, it
needs to be in that order not the order you have.
