Dear IE team,
The following code which I initially found not working and also confirmed by MVP Chen V, returns null with IE11 on Win 2012 server (post in Powershell forum):

May be not related but just give a try by enabling compatibility view in your Win 2012 browser
"Strange in either way its working for me. This is definite IE settings issue.
give a try with below code
$url ="http://www.facebook.com" $username="emailid" $password="password" $ie =New-Object-com internetexplorer.application; $ie.visible = $true; $ie.navigate($url);while($ie.ReadyState-ne 4){Start-Sleep-Milliseconds1000;} $ie.Document.getElementById("email").value = $username $ie.Document.getElementByID("Pass").value=$password $ie.Document.getElementById("loginbutton").Click();

We suspect it was due to default IE security setting, but I was not able to make it work after
1) enable compatibility setting for facebook.com
2) disable IE Protected mode
Please help with this problem!
