Javascript to clear form field on button click

I have a field called 'inputaddress' which a user types address details into, so they can perform a google map geocode.

What I would like to do is when the user clicks on the 'sear开发者_运维百科chfortheaddress' button, it will perform the geocode but will then clear the 'inputaddress' field.

Could someone perhaps tell me please how I can clear the field.

document.getElementById("inputaddress").value = '';

Would $('#inputaddress').html(""); or document.getElementById('inputaddress').value="" work?

document.getElementById("inputaddress").value = '';

i am assuming that u id your input address field addr just add this code to the onclick event of your searchforaddress button

document.getElementById('addr').value="";

like this (i am assuming is of ur searchforaddress button is searchforaddress)

    document.getElementById('searchforaddress').onclick=function() {
    document.getElementById('addr').value="";
};
