Try activate in place of focus, and see if that works for you. Just checking -- you do have Prototype in your page, right?

I'm creating a standard chat system. When the user hits the Enter key
in the textarea, I send her comment to the server. Then I clear her
message so she can begin typing a new one. The cursor blinker
disappears when I do this clear. It's better for usability if the
blinking remains. How do I put it back?

<textarea id="foo"></textarea>

$('foo').clear();
// at this point the blinking cursor is gone
$('foo').focus();
// focusing does not put the blinker back
