There seems to be some problem in your fun2. As Deep said, post the code.

Deep · Aug 12, 2005

actually from looking at the description it looks like that he has mentioned name of function fun1 in button 2 (he should have mentioned fun2 function there)

but lets see the code

hmm function name clear seems to be reserved name..rename the function to something else..it will work

btw why are you using function to clear the fields? just use type="reset" it will do the job

Deep

the_moon · Aug 12, 2005

Exactly!
For clearing the fields, u can simply use type="reset" and the job will be done my friend!!
No need to get into so much hassels atall!!

siriusb · Aug 12, 2005

But then, why didn't it work? I just wanna learn .

Deep · Aug 12, 2005

I have already mentioned the reason...

clear is reserved name so cant be used for function...

if you rename it to clear1 then it will work

Deep

siriusb · Aug 12, 2005

Ah, k thx.

Guest · Aug 12, 2005

ok thx i will try .. and you knw in this i have three text box and they are in diff forms so reset button of that form will not reset textbox of other form na so i want to use. .. and you are also rite i can put all this is in one form and use reset . . but after i was some lazy to change it so went for function. .

Guest · Aug 12, 2005

working yar .. thanx deep

Deep · Aug 12, 2005

lol get everything in one form and then do it..thats my suggestion

Edit: oh great to hear that it worked for u

good luck

Deep man, you are pretty fast

By the time I came back, you've already solved the problem!!

But somehow I am more comfortable with PHP then Javascript. Of course, they both compliment each other, one being used mainly for server side scripting and the other mainly for client side scripting.

But I don't know why I am more comfortable with PHP. May be because PHP code can't be seen just by viewing page source in browser

actually I too prefer PHP and I am not at all good at javascript but you know sometimes javascript is very useful specially for some quick validations...like blank fields etc...

takes less time but ofcourse i would do server side validations as well along with javascript

Deep

tuxfan · Aug 13, 2005

I agree

Guest · Aug 17, 2005

hey this all working fine till now . now i get other error .. in this as i gave code i have writen like document.forms[0].t1.value="" so when i execute on browser from net i get error like error at some line error : document.forms.0.T1.value is null or not an object !!!

when i saw source from view source it is like original means forms[0] , while in error brackets are not there !!!

now what to do?

Deep · Aug 17, 2005

yup it will show error coz you have given wrong variable names in clear function...

Code:

   document.forms[0].t1.value=""; 
   document.forms[0].t2.value=""; 
   document.forms[1].t1.value="";

your form field names are T1 AND T2.

variable names are case sensitive
