trim is not a function error

I recently get this error and not sure how to resolve it...

TypeError: $(...).get(...).trim is not a function

The script I use is this:

function vbstatus_change_status(statusID,userID,inputID,editboxID,statusboxID)
{
    $(inputID).value=vbstatus_htmlspecialchars_decode($(statusID).get('text').trim(),'ENT_QUOTES');
    $(statusboxID).setStyle('display','none');
    $(editboxID).setStyle('display','inline');
    $(inputID).addEvent('keydown',function(e){
        if(e.key=='enter'){
            vbstatus_update_status(statusID,userID,inputID,editboxID,statusboxID);
        }
    }); 
    if($chk($('inlinemodform'))){
        $('inlinemodform').addEvent('submit', vbstatus_formkill);
    }

}

I was looking at an issue similar to the one I have here, yet not sure how to deal with it!!

any idea how to do that?

Update: here the script I'm using

function vbstatus_htmlspecialchars_decode (string, quote_style) {

    var optTemp = 0, i = 0, noquotes= false;
    if (typeof quote_style === 'undefined') {        quote_style = 2;
    }
    string = string.toString().replace(/&lt;/g, '<').replace(/&gt;/g, '>');
    var OPTS = {
        'ENT_NOQUOTES': 0,        'ENT_HTML_QUOTE_SINGLE' : 1,
        'ENT_HTML_QUOTE_DOUBLE' : 2,
        'ENT_COMPAT': 2,
        'ENT_QUOTES': 3,
        'ENT_IGNORE' : 4    };
    if (quote_style === 0) {
        noquotes = true;
    }
    if (typeof quote_style !== 'number') { // Allow for a single string or an array of string flags        quote_style = [].concat(quote_style);
        for (i=0; i < quote_style.length; i++) {
            // Resolve string input to bitwise e.g. 'PATHINFO_EXTENSION' becomes 4
            if (OPTS[quote_style[i]] === 0) {
                noquotes = true;            }
            else if (OPTS[quote_style[i]]) {
                optTemp = optTemp | OPTS[quote_style[i]];
            }
        }        quote_style = optTemp;
    }
    if (quote_style & OPTS.ENT_HTML_QUOTE_SINGLE) {
        string = string.replace(/&#0*39;/g, "'"); // PHP doesn't currently escape if more than one 0, but it should
        // string = string.replace(/&apos;|&#x0*27;/g, "'"); 
// This would also be useful here, but not a part of PHP    
}
    if (!noquotes) {
        string = string.replace(/&quot;/g, '"');
    }

    return string;
}

Update# 2: this script uses mootools lib.

Update # 3: is it possible to convert this script to Jquery instead of Mootools?

I found the solution myself, but Thanks a lot for everyone who tried to help. The answer was simple to what I thought.

All I had to do is changing the

$(

To

document.id(

I did that for all $( in the script

And the script started working again.
