I have already this method.
The above code reassigns a blank value to that field, it does not reset the value of that field. There is a difference.
I am executing an Onclick event, when SAVEbutton is pressed!
But Still, Thanks for your info

that clears the text box, not reset it.
to do that, you should do 2 things:
in the onLoad
onLoad="var defaulttext=document.form.textfield.value"
and in the button put a onclick like this:
onClick="document.form.textfield.value=defaulttext"
Hope this helps.

Anikin!
Your cool idea worked perfectedly, Thanks!
Also, onpnt, your code is also correct and makes sense, its only that in my current situation, Anikin's code is doing the job.

When loading the page you could copy the whole form into an array, then selectively reset the fields you wish
Code:
var clone = new Array();
function cloneForm(){
for(var i=0;i<document.formName.elements.length;i++){
clone[document.formName.elements[i].name]=document.formName.elements[i].value}
}
function resetField(field){
document.formName[field].value=clone[field];
}
window.onload=cloneForm;- Status
