Reset Button

[bernte]

hi.. is there a way to add an reset button?

i use quicksearch with tablesorter and tried different things to reset the table. i found your(?) old script modified @ http://michael.theirwinfamily.net/demo/jquery/modified-quicksearch/index.html but it isnt compatible to the last one.

i tried some javscript/html code to reset (clear) the search input. i was able to remove the word in the searchinput but the table doesnt get back to beginning.

hope you understand my problem. sorry for my bad english!

best regards

I know you both put this comment in some time ago, but I was having some trouble with this too, and was able to find a solution that didn't require modifying quickseach's code, wanted to post it. Code is below:

<div id="searchdiv">
<form action="#">
<input type="text" id="id_search" placeholder="Enter Search Terms..."> <input type="button" onClick="clearTxt()" value="Reset">
</form>
</div>
<!---your table code goes here-->

<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
        $("#id_search").quicksearch('table tbody tr', {
                'stripeRows': ['odd','even'], 
                'noResults': 'Nothing Found.', 
                'bind': 'focus keyup keydown' 
        });
});

function clearTxt() {
        $("#searchdiv").triggerHandler("focus");
        $("#id_search").val('').focus();
}

Essentially, using jQuery ( v1.7.1 - http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.7.1.js ), to build the quicksearch as normal, and then add a button named id_search that onClick calls the clearTxt function, which gives focus to the container div, and then clears and gives focus back to the quicksearch filter textbox.

I like to have my list filter as a person types in it (thus the keyup and keydown in the bind option), but in order to make this work and actually clear I also had to add the focus event into the bind. The code should be relatively self-explanatory, but if you have any questions feel free to ask and I'll try to help out.
