wildteen88 Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 You might want to use javascript to clear the fields you want clearing instead. Like this:[code]<script type="text/javascript">function clearForm(){ document.formName.name.value = ""; document.formName.email.value = "";}</script><form name="formName" action="fileName.php" method="get">Name: <input type="text" name="name"><br />Email: <input type="text" name="email"><br />Special Field: <input type="text" name="special" value="doesn't get cleared" /><br /><input type="button" value="Reset" onClick="clearForm()"></form>[/code] To add more follow this template:[code]document.[name of form here].[name of input field].value = "";[/code] Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/6110-clear-form-button/#findComment-22346 Share on other sites More sharing options...
