a) either you have found a bug in IE or
may be or may be not because I am seeing that element on Firefox too.
b) You have one more text area with the same name & id which is visible.
so just scroll down and then check if there is another textarea with the
same name and id which is visible.
there is no element on the page with the same id and name
