[Destramic]

i made this script to rest field...so even if a field vaule = "something!" then it will still reset it..but it doesnt work for type = "file" anyone help?

[code]
<script>
function reset_form(the_form)
{
if (confirm("Are you sure you want to reset this form?\n Note: All entered data will be lost in the process."))
{
var elements = the_form.elements;

for (var i = 0; i < elements.length; i++)
{
var element = elements[i];
var type    = element.type;

if (type && element.value !== null)
{
switch (type)
{
case "select-one":
element.selectedIndex = -1;
break;

case "text":
case "textarea":
case "password":
case "file":
element.value = "";
break;
}
}
}
}
}
</script>

<input id="file_upload" name="file_upload" type="file" class="file" value="" />

I'm fairly sure you're unable to change it's value, yes.  .reset() might have a chance.
