How to clear fillText from HTML5 Canvas

When I try to use c.clearRect the doesnt doesnt get cleared, Im writing the text onto the canvas using c.fillText? Does anyone know how to make it so the text will be cleared? Thanks.

The key to this is, as HAPPY TO HELP showed, using multiple canvases. This will make it easier. Using only one canvas, will make it an arduous task. Hope this helped. Upvote plz!

So it would be better to just use js to make another canvas and then remove the canvas when the time comes?
