Question

I am trying to clear a form. I am trying to remove the values for text boxes then unselect radios/checkboxes but keep the values of them and hidden inputs.

I have this so far but it removes the values for my radios/checkboxes and hidden inputs.

$(':input','#form1')
 .not(':button, :submit, :reset, :hidden')
 .val('')
 .removeAttr('checked')
 .removeAttr('selected');

Answer 1

By calling val(''), you already removing the content of your element’s, try this:

$(':input','#form1')
 .not(':button, :submit, :reset, :hidden')
 .removeAttr('checked')
 .removeAttr('selected');
