HTMLFormElement: reset() method
Baseline
Widely available
This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since July 2015.
The HTMLFormElement.reset() method restores a form
element's default values. This method does the same thing as clicking the form's
<input type="reset"> control.
If a form control (such as a reset button) has a name or id of reset it will
mask the form's reset method. It does not reset other attributes in the input, such as
disabled.
Note that if setAttribute() is called to set
the value of a particular attribute, a subsequent call to reset() won't
reset the attribute to its default value, but instead will keep the attribute at
whatever value the setAttribute() call set it to.
Syntax
reset()
Parameters
None.
Return value
None (undefined).

document.getElementById("my-form").reset();
