I tried www.google.com as the code below and it worked.

	using (var ie = new IE("http://www.google.com/")) { TextField tf =
ie.TextField(Find.ById("lst-ib")); if (tf.Exists) tf.Value = "sheep";
ie.Button(Find.ByName("btnG")).Click(); }But I noticed that with my
URL part of the exception message indicates that it is looking in
'about:blank'. Maybe this has something to do with it?

	Do the same code for Google.com and see what your results are there.

	If it works for google.com, then . . . 

	What version of IE is it?

	Try in compatibility mode.

	Also if you are running the application as admin you may want to make
sure protected mode is off in IE and if not running as admin maybe
make sure it is on.

	Thank you for responding. Here is the complete source for what I am
trying:

	using System;

	using System.Collections.Generic;

	using System.Linq;

	using System.Text;

	using System.Threading.Tasks;

	using WatiN.Core;

	namespace WatiNDemo {

	 class Program {

	 [STAThread]

	 static void Main(string[] args) {

	 using (var ie = new IE("http://bdsdev.alpha.kaplaninc.com/ [1]")) {

	 TextField tf = ie.TextField(Find.ById("Username"));

	 if(tf.Exists)

	 ie.TextField("Username").Value = "kburton";

	 ie.TextField("Password").Value = "July231951Kaplan";

	 ie.Button("login").Click();

	 }

	 }

	 }

	}

The 'Exists' is always false. So I don't get the exception but nothing
happens. The web page is staightforward. It is not in a frame.

	Using the browser debugger the source of this element looks like:

	Try something like. . .

	TextField tf = ie.TextField(Find.ById(“Username”));

	If(tf.exists)

	{

	 tf.Value = “mystuff”;

	}

	If it does not exist, then check if it is in a frame or if it’s
input type I not set to a typical type.

	I have a very simple startup application. It is a Windows Console app
that looks like:

	Class Program {

	 [STAThread]

	 static void Main(string[] args) {

	 using(var ie = new IE(http://bdsdev.alpha.kaplaninc.com/) [5]) {

	 ie.TextField(“Username”).Value = “xxxxxxx”;

	 ie.TextField(“Password”).Value = “yyyyyyyy”;

	 ie.Button(“login”).Click();

	 }

	 }

	}

	The web page is a very simple web page with two input fields and a
submit button. I have checked that the web page has something like “
