Getting NoAlertPresentException if the alert is shown before page loaded.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

See http://goo.gl/ll2FvQ for common issues.

Issue Description:
We have a salesforce application where we are clicking on a button which opens 
a new window but before loading the content on that window, developer has shown 
an alert. Once the user accepts this alert then the page gets loaded on the new 
window.

We are switching to this window using 

driver.switchTo().window("CDwindow-FC77DF69-9374-415C-BD22-15011B339DC3");

After switching when we are firing this statement driver.switchTo().alert(); 
the it is throwing NoAlertPresentException. But visually I could see an alert 
is there on this new window. I tried waiting for 60 seconds but still no luck.

This is easily reproducible on ChromeDriver 2.11 and Java binding 2.42.2.

Steps to reproduce (if relevant, you MUST provide a simplified html page or
link to public site):

We are switching to this window using 

driver.switchTo().window("CDwindow-FC77DF69-9374-415C-BD22-15011B339DC3");

After switching when we are firing this statement driver.switchTo().alert(); 
the it is throwing NoAlertPresentException. But visually I could see an alert 
is there on this new window. I tried waiting for 60 seconds but still no luck.

This is easily reproducible on ChromeDriver 2.11 and Java binding 2.42.2.

-----Other helpful tips:
Attach your chromedriver log with verbose logging enabled (see
http://goo.gl/5Sx8mC for how to do this).
