Hi Todd,
You're setting this._element like this:
> this._element = parentDiv.select(".txt-message-panel");
Element#select[1] returns an array of matching elements, not an
element. I don't think $[2] accepts arrays; it accepts strings (IDs)
and elements, and will accept several of them as separate arguments,
but not a single argument that is an array. I think you probably
meant to use down[3]. Regardless, once you've gotten an element from
Prototype, it will already be extended and you don't have to pass it
through $ again.
