try using the value method:
@ie.text_field(:name, ..).value='some text'
the set method fires all appropriate evens, and generally obeys what the web
page is doing ( ie not letting you enter something that is hidden) but value=
will get round that

Subject: [Wtr-general] how to populate hidden text area?
My webpage has the following code:
<textarea name="J__LDESC"
style="visibility:hidden">(NULL)</textarea>
My watir test has the following code:
@ie.text_field(:name, "J__LDESC").set("some text")
I am getting the following error:
1) Error:
test_MemSlot(TestMemSlot):
WIN32OLERuntimeError: focus
OLE error code:800A083E in htmlfile
Can't move focus to the control because it is invisible, not enabled,
or of a type that does not accept the focus.
HRESULT error code:0x80020009
Exception occurred.

Could someone help me in resolving this issue?
Thanks
