InternetExplorer Com Object, getElementById, getElementsByName and getElementsByTagName

I want to create a webtest with PowerShell. At the moment I had a problem with a SharePoint Textbox when I create a new Calender entry. The properties from the Field are:

Now you can see, there is no fixed ID that can I use.

It is possible to search the the word "Titel" and get the ID?

(title = titel because it is german ;-) )

The following code is not working.

$ie2.Document.getElementById( "*ctl00$TextField").value = "test"
$ie2.Document.getElementByName( "*ctl00$TextField").value = "test"
$ie2.Document.getElementByTagName( "Titel").value = "test"

Sourcecode in the Internet Explorer:

<td nowrap="true" valign="top" width="190px" class="ms-formlabel"><h3 class="ms-standardheader">
        <nobr>Titel<span class="ms-formvalidation" title="Dies ist ein Pflichtfeld." > *</span></nobr>
    </h3></td>
        <td valign="top" class="ms-formbody">
        <!-- FieldName="Titel"
             FieldInternalName="Title"
             FieldType="SPFieldText"
          -->
            <span dir="none">
        <input name="ctl00$m$g_27855e01_08c1_498d_b130_0b761c472fbd$ctl00$ctl05$ctl00$ctl00$ctl00$ctl04$ctl00$ctl00$TextField" type="text" maxlength="255" id="ctl00_m_g_27855e01_08c1_498d_b130_0b761c472fbd_ctl00_ctl05_ctl00_ctl00_ctl00_ctl04_ctl00_ctl00_TextField" title="Titel" class="ms-long ms-spellcheck-true" /><br />
    </span>

You should look into using WATIN from PowerShell, WATIN would make your life much easier.
