I guess all I realy need is documentation.
But here is my question.
I know how to get to the Form:

/* */
explorer = .OLEObject~new("InternetExplorer.Application")
explorer~navigate2("http://rotterdam.digitalestamboom.nl/search.aspx")
do until explorer~ReadyState = 4
call SysSleep 1
end
doc = explorer~document
form = doc~getelementbyid("frmSearch")

/* Now I don't know how to change the Form */

/* I do know how to return the Form */
form~submit

Can anyone help me to change the Form,
or/and even better, point me to the proper docs.

Thanks
Wim Dirks

There's an ongoing discussion along those lines at our new web based
RexxLA forum named "The RexxLA list", which shadows the member only
listserve forum. You can read it at:

http://www.rexxla.org/forum.html

but only members can post to it. All the other forums there are open and
registration is free!

Interesting to read in there that we have just passed the 34th anniversary
of Mike Cowlishaw starting work on Rexx!

I'm not sure how much you picked up from the discussion that Les
pointed you to, but, a work around that is likely help is to set the
compatibility setting to "Display all websites in Compatibility
View". This setting is under Tools -> Compatibility View Settings.

The next release of ooRexx will have a fix for the problem.

That makes it just under 34 years of excitement and fun for us, eh Maurice?
