Initial Comment:
I am trying to run the Simple Example to automate a google search on "Python"
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-announce-list/2009-March/007279.html

######################################################
from PAM30 import PAMIE

ie = PAMIE()
ie.navigate("google.com")
ie.setTextBox("q", "python")
ie.clickButton("Google Search")
ie.clickLink("Python Programming Language -- Official Website")

######################################################
I have the exact same setup as mentioned in the note by Rob Marchetti. Note:This version only only works with Python 3.0 on Windows and
requires Mark Hammond's pywin32 for Python3.0 - pywin32-213.win32-py3.0.exe

But i get the following error:   
TypeError: getElementsByTagName() takes exactly 1 positional argument (2 given)

Details:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "testPAM.py", line 10, in <module>
    ie.setTextBox("q", "python")
  File "C:\Users\raveesh\Dropbox\myCode\SSSB\PAM30.py", line 2093, in setTextBox
    foundElement = self.getTextBox(name)
  File "C:\Users\raveesh\Dropbox\myCode\SSSB\PAM30.py", line 1717, in getTextBox
    foundElement = self.findElement("input", "id;name;value", name)
  File "C:\Users\raveesh\Dropbox\myCode\SSSB\PAM30.py", line 445, in findElement
    elements = self.getElementsList(tag)
  File "C:\Users\raveesh\Dropbox\myCode\SSSB\PAM30.py", line 939, in getElementsList
    elements = self._ie.Document.getElementsByTagName(tag)
TypeError: getElementsByTagName() takes exactly 1 positional argument (2 given)

Python on my machine: Python 3.0.1 (r301:69561, Feb 13 2009, 20:04:18) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
