How to clear the spring form fields using jQuery?

When I click the 'CLEAR' button, I want the javascipt code to run. It does run but then the form gets submitted. Is there a way to stop the form from getting submitted? Or is there a spring standard to clear the form. I just thought it would be faster if I did it on the client-side.

 <input type="submit" value="CLEAR" onclick="javascript:clearForm()"/>

The above code appears inside the spring form tag.

Two options.

1). Using input type="button":

<input type="button" value="CLEAR" onclick="clearForm()"/>

2). Using input type="reset" instead of clearing the form with javascript.

<input type="reset" value="CLEAR" />

Change

<input type="submit"

to:

<input type="button"

That will stop your form being submitted when the button is clicked.
