I have created a form, where it has a radio button (Yes/NO). Depends on the input(Yes/No) of the radio button the next variable (Test Field) is appearing. I am passing value in the Text Field type, when the radio button is on Yes condition, after that I am choosing No condition and type some text in Text Field.

Now, if am again choosing the condition as Yes, the Text Field has the same value what I passed earlier when the condition was Yes. It is not resetting. Similarly for the No condition.

Could you please help to reset the value of the Text Field based on the radio button conditions like Yes and No.

Hi Hemanth,

If you add a Javascript block to your form and use the following code, it works. I've tested it using the form that you attached.

$("input[name='Gender']").click(function() {
document.getElementById('Hus_Name').value = '';
document.getElementById('Spouse_Name').value = '';
});

See the reply in context

Can you please explain the use case? Why would you want to reset the text box when you switch? Do you need 2 text boxes?

regards

Edwin

  Hi Edwin,
  
  Thanks for getting back to me.
  
  I am furnishing the details as below
  
                                                                                  (ii)                                                                                (iii)
  
  
                  I have created Field type as Radio button and given the value as Male and Female
  
  (ii)              I am choosing the Gender as Male and then Spouse Name Text Field appears. I am just passing the value as Wife
  
  (iii)             Again I am choosing the Gender as Female and then Husband Name Text Field appears. I am just passing the value as Husband
  
  If I am back to the gender “Male” again, I could see the same name in the Text Field what I have given when I chose “Male”.
  
  My use case, is it should reset the value if I am changing gender value.
  
  Could you please help on this to resolve. Thanks in advance !!
  
  Regards,
  Hemanth

        I see what you are trying to achieve.
        I can't think of a way to reset the text field every time you change the radio button selection.
        I hope someone else can help with that.
        
        My questions is: why is that important to reset the value of the text field?

I don't see why you would have a separate field for this. If you use 1 field and have some logic in the workflows to put the right value in the right variable (e.g. put in the value of the textbox in attribute husband when the checkbox is female).

Default the textbox values do not reset. If you want to keep 2 separate textboxes and not have some logic in the workflow (as described above) you might want to check if you can use a javascript block (you can even use JQuery in this I believe) to reset the textbox when you select a different radio button. I cannot help you with the exact code but perhaps there is someone on the community that has done this before.

Again my preferred solution would be to have 1 textbox and use logic in the workflow

regards

Edwin
