You can try setting the Text or Value property of the text box to NULL, or send Backspace or CTRL-A->Delete to clear the box.

As Grona said have you tried by setting value instead of text .Also, try setting null value before placing the next attribute.
Though its a web application you can use send keys hope passing backspace works.
