Having trouble getting the object name from a form created in java script

[LovinItAll]

Okay, let me re-word this question:

In the form I am trying to manipulate, a Form Element has the following characteristics:

- Index = 10

- tag = TEXTAREA

- Name = CTL_6_4

- ID = CTL_6_4

I have tried:

$o_Mail = _IEFormGetObjByName ($o_IE, "form1")
$o_Body = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($o_Mail, "ctl_6_4")
_IEFormElementSetValue ($o_Body, $Body)

But to no avail. In the same form, I use the following code to sucessfully set the value of a form element (type=input) with the following code:

$o_Mail = _IEFormGetObjByName ($o_IE, "form1")
$o_Subject = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($o_Mail, "_ctl6:_ctl4:subject")
_IEFormElementSetValue ($o_Subject, $Subject)

So I guess what I am asking is how to set the value of a TEXTAREA form element .

Any help would be greatly appreciated.....

Oh yeah, obviously the variables have been assigned earlier in the script

Edit: OK, this example as originally posted created some confusion. I've split it up and added some comments to make it more clear.

-------------------------------------------------

Here is a self-contained example of setting the value of a TextArea:

; The first section of this script:
;    1) creates a new, empty browser window 
;    2) creates a form with a text area for testing (using $sBody)
;
#include <ie.au3>

$oIE = _IECreate()
_IELoadWait($oIE)
$sBody = "<form id='form1'><textarea cols=20 rows=8 id='tarea'></textarea></form>"
_IEBodyWriteHTML($oIE,$sBody)

; This section of the script demonstrates how to set the value of an existing TextArea.  
; You'll need to modify it to match the structure of your HTML, but it works with the 
; HTML loaded above.

; get a reference to the form
$oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE,"form1") 

; get a reference to the textarea element
$oTarea = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm,"tarea") 

; write text to the textarea element
 _IEFormElementSetValue($oTarea,"Text In a TextArea")
