Example
; *******************************************************
; Example 1 - Open a browser with the "form" example, get a reference
; to the submit button by name and "click" it. This technique
; of submitting forms is useful because many forms rely on JavaScript
; code and "onClick" events on their submit button making _IEFormSubmit()
; not perform as expected
