Actually, that *is* supported. However, if you look a sample HTML
<INPUT> element from a page I'm scraping you'll find a clue why that
particular example didn't work:
<INPUT id=SSNEntry_txtSpouseSSN style=\"WIDTH: 95px\" value=999
name=SSNEntry:txtSpouseSSN>
For text_fields, the current text in the field is contained in the
"value" attribute. Thus:
ie.text_field( :value, 'xyz' )
Should work for you.
