Typically, these <a> anchor elements have an onClick event. You need to inspect the element and determine what script is being executed together with what (if any) parameters.

ie.Document.parentWindow.execScript "theScript();", "javascript"

Sorry but without knowing the URL and element that you are trying to get through, it is pretty much impossible to offer more.

See How can I pass variable parameters into a Javascript Function using Excel VBA for more information.

You are just going to have to drill a little deeper into what sounds like nested javascript functions and possible a rewrite in the form's action property. As I've implied in my response, there is no way to provide direct help without knowing the URL (and possibly credentials) of the wen page in question.
