Hi - I have an RJS that says

page[“textarea\_id”].clear that works fine with rails 2.0.2 but is  
broken with 2.1.1 - I get an error message:

ActionView::TemplateError (undefined method `[]’ for  
#Enumerable::Enumerator:0x2b31d31cc598)

So, how do I clear a text\_area now? Also, is there a reference for  
page somewhere?

Thanks,  
Dino
