I've got a line open with the author of FTB to see why this is. When you
include the free version of FTB, all you get is a DLL to link into your
project. I'm hoping that the author will be able to give me a little more
insight into the pieces that are being displayed.
I do know about the frame (there are actually two of them), but I'm unsure on
why they are there, or how/if I should be able to actually set text on the
fields.
For now I have a clumsy workaround - sleep for 15 seconds while I paste the
text into the field. Its frustrating that I could not do
ie.text_area(:id,"ctl0_MainBody_PolicyHtmlEditor").set("hi")
on the object. Grrr.
Sometimes you win, sometimes you have to find the way around. LOL.

So it is. You realize you have a frame or iframe there, right?
That's the "HTML Document" bit.
