Clearing controls after posting to db

george atkins

What is the most effective way to clear a variety of text
boxes and dropdowns after posting their contents to a
database, but without closing the form?

I want to leave the form up for additional entries, but
I'd like to have the previous choises removed so that they
do not maintain the previous time entry. However, I'm not
talking about removing data sources, of course.

Thanks,
George Atkins

Are you talking about clearing the field at the client-side or at the
server-side?

Good question. I suppose at the server side. There are
several dropdowns that are filled from database tables,
along with text boxes. Once the user chooses values from
the dropdowns, enters the textboxes and clicks the Submit
button, I want the fields to clear the user choices to
allow a new time entry. So, would that be server side?

Yep, its sounds like server side. So you may want to try something like
this:
[C#]
// get a reference to your form control
Control frm = FindControl("YourFormID");
foreach(Control ctrl in frm.Controls)
{
TextBox tb = ctrl as TextBox;
if(ctrl!=null)
tb.Text="";
}

My problem is a little different but I think this thread
could help. How would you clear the control on the client
side?

Thanks in advance.
