Strange Selenium IDE Issue

Hi,

I am new to Selenium IDE, so apologies if this has happened and been covered before.

When i complete a sample test in the Firefox Selenium IDE add-on, the code runs through perfectly.

I then try to run it via the Test Runner link on this plugin and the script no longer works.

In my test i am going into google, typing in a sample address to find - in this case United Utilities, then clicking on the link to go into the chosen page.

As i say this works in the IDE plugin, but not in the TestRunner - in Test Runner i receive the following error message:- "Timed out after 30000ms".

Also, second to this, when i am recording a script and click on a link (again, in this case United Utilities) rather than getting the link, the following code is entered into my script:-

clickAndWait   //div[@id='res']/div[1]/ol/li[1]/h3/a/em

I would expect the exact link to appear here as this code never works seems to work as i am told the element can not be found.

Any ideas on the above?
