Clearing Forms after submission

I am creating a form to be used at an event. The form will be displayed on an iPad so that people can enter into a competition at our booth. After someone has filled out the form and pressed submit, i want to the form to be cleared so that the next person can fill out the form. How do i set it up to be cleared? Is this possible!?!

Hello Courtney,

The submit function should reset the form after every user as part of the process. But if that doesnt work you have another option the easiest is to just create a reset button so you or the audience can reset the form at any time after the submission. This would be coded like this.

<form action="url-to-formmail-provided-by-your-ISP" method="post">
        First name: <input type="text" name="firstname" /> <br />
        Surname: <input type="text" name="surname" /><br />
        <input type="reset" value="Clear form" />
        <input type="submit" value="Submit now" />
</form>

This would give you a submit and reset buttons.

A simpler way is to disable form prefill for that form. This is a "kiosk form" and will just refresh or go to the same page on submit.
