<input name="description" maxlength="128" value="" onmouseover="hoverField(this)"   onmouseout="jjj" onblur="blurField(this)" onfocus="focusField(this)" class="formInputFieldFilled" type="text">

This works for me, using XPath:

//input[@name='description']

I would hazard a guess it could well be in another IFrame, so double check this.

It could also be a problem of that the element is not visible on the page at the time, so take a look into WebDriverWait:
