What method do we use to clear a text from textbox on a same page in Jscript?

- I am using Jscript language for automation scripting - It is appending a next text but I want to clear other fields before writing any text on a same page.

may be you are using Keys('your text')

before that you can use

 SetText('')

      Try using textarea.Keys("^a[BS]")

       

      If that doesn't work, see Alex Karas' solution here
