You could just create a form, populate it with your string, and then reset it, like so:

var myForm = $('<form>').html(your_string).
                find(':input').not(':button, :submit, :reset, :hidden').
                val('').removeAttr('checked').removedAttr('selected');

Then it's just a matter of accessing the innerHTML of myForm.

Assuming you have a text string like this:

var txt = '<form id="search" action="/search" method="get" autocomplete="off"><div><input autocomplete="off" name="q" type="text" value="sample"></div></form>'
var $form = $(txt);

$form[0].reset();

var resetTxt = $form.html();
