AutoIt send command in IE in Kiosk mode

I'm really new to coding (like very new) but I managed to do what I wanted with AutoIt. That means: Launch IE automatically on a certain web page in Kiosk mode. So far so good.

But before I was not in kiosk mode the input sent worked but now I can't find the problem why it does not work any more. 

ShellExecuteWait("c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe", "-k http://website.com", "")

WinWaitActive("website.com  Login - Internet Explorer","")

Send("login{TAB}password{ENTER}")

The website is launched, I'm directly in the login box, but nothing is typed in it. Any ideas?

Like @Steve said in the comments, you can try to use ControlFocus when the window is shown, then send the credentials.

ShellExecuteWait("c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe", "-k http://website.com", "")

; store the returned window handle to use it in the ControlFocus call
Local $hWnd = WinWaitActive("website.com  Login - Internet Explorer","")

ControlFocus($hWnd, "", "Edit1")

Send("login{TAB}password{ENTER}")
