I'm inserting data into a table using Ajax. I'm using ajax so my page wouldn't get refresh. Here is my Ajax code for calling the inserting page:
<script type="text/javascript">
var i = jQuery.noConflict();
i(document).ready(function(){
i('#myForm').on('submit',function(e) {
i.ajax({
url:'insert.php',
data:$(this).serialize(),
type:'POST'
});
e.preventDefault();
});
});
</script>
Now every time i write in the textbox and hit the submit button the data gets entered but it remains in textbox and i have to press the delete button to erase it.
Question: how can I make so my data gets cleared when I press the submit button?

You can reset form fields on the completion as suggested by arun or on success as below
var i = jQuery.noConflict();
jQuery(function ($) {
$('#myForm').on('submit', function (e) {
$.ajax({
url: 'insert.php',
data: $(this).serialize(),
type: 'POST',
success:function(data) {
$('#myForm')[0].reset();
}
});
e.preventDefault();
Hope it helps

document.getElementById('myForm').reset(); // In Javascript
$("#myform")[0].reset(); // In jQuery Fashion

You can reset the form in the ajax success handler
var i = jQuery.noConflict();
jQuery(function ($) {
$('#myForm').on('submit', function (e) {
$.ajax({
url: 'insert.php',
data: $(this).serialize(),
type: 'POST',
context: this
}).done(function () {
this.reset();
});
e.preventDefault();
});
});
