I have the following code for a jscript implementation of skulpt to run Python in the browser. I have added a "clear" button, and when it is clicked, I want the text inside the textbox, as well as any "run" code, to be deleted/cleared from the screen.
The below shows my attempt (the function "clearit") but it doesn't work. Any suggestions - please post code for that function with an explanation for what I was doing wrong/corrections.
Relevant function
function clearit(){
var prog = document.getElementById("yourcode").value;
mypre.innerHTML = 'TRY SOME NEW CODE';
<textarea id="yourcode" cols="40" rows="10">
print("Hello World")
</textarea>
}
I paste the full code below, because it could be down to the fact that I am putting the function in wrong place. It stops working altogether once I add this function.

});
myPromise.then(function(mod) {

function clearit(){

}

<h3>Try This</h3>
<form>
<textarea id="yourcode" cols="40" rows="10">
print("Hello World")
</textarea><br />
<button type="button" onclick="runit()">Run</button>
</form>
<p>Output below</p>
<button type="button" onclick="clearit()">Clear</button>
<pre id="output" ></pre>
<!-- If you want turtle graphics include a canvas -->
<div id="mycanvas"></div>
<script src="js/skulpt.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="js/skulpt-stdlib.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</body>

I also tried some other iterations of the function, see below.
<script>
function clearit(){
var prog = document.getElementById("yourcode").value;
var mypre = document.getElementById("output");
mypre.innerHTML = 'TRY SOME NEW CODE';
<textarea id="yourcode" cols="40" rows="10">
print("Hello World")
</textarea>
}
</script>
To clarify: The mypre.innerHtml worked...but not clearing the textbox with the code. The part I want to implement is to clear the textarea. If I remove the part with <textarea id..) etc the code works fine, and also clears the OUTPUT console. I need the next bit (clearing the textarea) working.
Your function should look like this:
You also have too many script tags, remove the ones around the clearit() function.
