Jwebunit Exception invoking setOuterHTML

Question

i am trying to place text in a textbox using jwebunit and i keep getting a "Exception invoking setOuterHTML" error. this is the code that i think is causing the issue

tester.setTextField("ctl00$ctl00$ContentMain$ContentPlaceHolder1$ucCreateEditCustomer$ucBillingAddressForm$tbFirstName", Database1[0][0]);

because the exception is caused by

java.lang.AssertionError: Did not find form element with name  
["ctl00$ctl00$ContentMain$ContentPlaceHolder1$ucCreateEditCustomer$ucBillingAddressForm$tbFirstName"].

i got that element name that i am using from the website i am trying to enter information into. the code for the textfeild is

<input name="ctl00$ctl00$ContentMain$ContentPlaceHolder1$ucCreateEditCustomer$ucShippingAddressForm$tbFirstName"  
type="text"  
id="ctl00_ctl00_ContentMain_ContentPlaceHolder1_ucCreateEditCustomer_ucShippingAddressForm_tbFirstName"  
class="AddressFormTextBox" />

does anyone know why i might be getting this error? Jwebunit easly connects to google and this website but it cant fillout any of the textboxes. any help would be appreciated thanks.

Answer 1

I think that:

name="(..)$ucCreateEditCustomer$ucShippingAddressForm$tbFirstName"

(...)$ucCreateEditCustomer$ucBillingAddressForm$tbFirstName"

may be the cause of the issue.
