I'm a tentative "switcher" from Prototype. Not sure yet... I'm porting
one app to see how it suits me. One of the frequent things this app
does is work with text in a textarea. Let's say the id of the textarea
is "inputbox" ... I find myself writing code like:

$('#inputbox')[0].value = json['results'];

I understand why this works and the Prototype'ish version $
('inputbox').value = 'foo' doesn't. I'm just wondering whether there
is a different, more idiomatic way.

Thx
