Not able to reset input field in laravel

I need to reset the input field when user clicks on the rest button, I have other content on the page which is getting cleared except input field, I'm not sure if this is happening because I'm using old values after post request.
<input type="text" name="app_number" class="form-control" onreset="this.value=''" value="{!! Request::input('app_number') !!}" id="app_number" placeholder="Application Number" required>
JS for reset button:
document.getElementById("appForm").onreset = function() {
document.getElementById("app_number").value = "";
};
Reset Button:
<button class="btn btn-primary" id="reset-button" type="reset">Reset</button>

Use type="reset" for your button:
<button type="reset">Cancel</button>

try using reset():
document.getElementById("app_number").reset();

In this case you must use JQuery Lib. Basic you need to set ID for this element. And in jquery you listen click on this Element.
$('#app_number').on('change', function () {
// enter code here
});

Please try to use in js like:
$(document).on('click', '#YourOnclickButtonID', function(){
var $alertas = $('#YourFormID');
$alertas.validate().resetForm();
});

So answering my own question, any feedback would be appreciated but this is working.
It turns out that no matter what value="{!! Request::input('app_number') !!}" will always have value as this code gets executed on the server side and unless you make another post request you can not change the value and by using only vanilla JS and without post request this cannot be done.
So, instead of getting values from Request why not just takes the values from user input and save it to local storage and then just grab it and inject into the input field.
I added onkeyup event ion to the input field
<input type="text" name="app_number" class="form-control" onkeyup='saveValue(this);' id="app_number" placeholder="Application Number" required>
and JS to store and retrieve input
document.getElementById("app_number").value = getSavedValue("app_number"); // set the value to this input
function saveValue(e) {
var id = e.id; // get the sender's id to save it .
var val = e.value; // get the value.
localStorage.setItem(id, val); // Every time user writing something, the localStorage's value will override .
}
//get the saved value function - return the value of "v" from localStorage.
function getSavedValue(v) {
if (!localStorage.getItem(v)) {
return ""; // You can change this to your defualt value.
}
return localStorage.getItem(v);
}
and then reset the form as usual
document.getElementById("appForm").onreset = function() {
document.getElementById("app_number").value = '';
};

Your reset button :
<button class="btn btn-primary" id="reset-button" onclick="myFunction()">Reset</button>
In js:
function myFunction(){
document.getElementById("app_number").value = "";
}

Javascript reset the whole form that contains default value

How can I reset a HTML form with JavaScript? My form actually contains PHP default value.
I used this to clear:
function reset(){
document.getElementById("moduleform_insert").reset();
}
It works perfectly when there is no <input value="0">.
Is there any method that can clear or I should grab each input value and one by one set to empty?
Hope someone would give some advice. Thanks.

You can use jQuery to do this.
function reset(){
jQuery("#moduleform_insert").val('');
}
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input id="moduleform_insert" value="0" />
<input type="button" onClick="reset();" value="Reset" />
And if you have multiple input elements, you can change above reset() function to this one, which will loop through all your input elements and set their value to empty (you can put container id or class in front of input jQuery(".container input") ):
function reset(){
jQuery("input").each(function(){
jQuery(this).val('');
});
}

It works perfectly when there is no .
Is there any method that can clear or I should grab each input value
and one by one set to empty?
This is how reset works
The HTMLFormElement.reset() method restores a form element's default
values. This method does the same thing as clicking the form's reset
button.
If you want to clear the values, then simply fetch them and clear them one by one
var form = document.getElementById("moduleform_insert");
var allNumberAndTextInputs = form.querySelectorAll("input[type='number'], input[type='text'] ");
Array.from( allNumberAndTextInputs ).forEach( function( ele ){
ele.value = ""; //set the value to empty
})

function reset() {
document.getElementById("Form").reset();
}
<form id="Form">
<input type="text">
<input type="button" onClick="reset();" value="Reset" />
</form>

var form = $('#myform');
form.find('input:text,textarea,select').val('');
form.find('input:radio,input:checkbox').each(function(){
this.checked = false;
});
This is the base code. You can add 'input:email', 'input:phone' and so on if you like. Or do something like this:
form.find('input').not(':hidden,:submit').val('');

Javascript run onChange not onLoad

I have a very simple piece of Javascript that works perfectly onLoad, but I need it to work onChange.
My script;
<form action="" method="post" name="product_search">
<p><strong>Existing Part Number:</strong>
<input name="v_prodref" type="text" id="v_prodref" size="25" maxlength="25" onChange="searchValue()">
<input type="text" name="prodref" id="prodref">
<input type="submit" name="search_Submit" id="search_Submit" value="Submit">
</p>
<div>
<%=(rs_ProductCheck.Fields.Item("prodref").Value)%>
// <%=(rs_ProductCheck.Fields.Item("proddesc").Value)%></div>
<script>
function searchValue() {
var add = "NW";
var c_ProdRef = document.getElementById('v_prodref');
if(c_ProdRef.search(/GST/i) == -1) {
n_ProdRef = c_ProdRef.concat(add) }
else {
n_ProdRef = c_ProdRef.replace(/GST/i,"NWGST") }
document.getElementById("prodref").value = n_ProdRef;
}
</script>
</form>
So, I enter a part number in the first text box, and I want my javascript to run and enter the new value in the second text box, but it doesn't seem to work.
What am I missing?

search does not exist on an HTMLInputElement. You need to use c_ProdRef.value.search.
(Actually, since you're using it in many places as a string, and never as an input, you probably intended to define c_ProdRef as var document.getElementById('v_prodref').value)
You would've seen this error on load as well.

you want onkeyup if it works perfectly onLoad, and you want to start typing in something in textbox 1 and the javascript to run, you dont want onchange
onchange triggers after blur of focused element
onkeyup triggers after you release a keyboard input

Thanks to everyone for their help. After a little tweaking I have managed to get my code working.
function myFunction() {
var add = "NW";
var c_ProdRef = document.getElementById('v_prodref').value;
if (c_ProdRef.search(/GST/i) == -1) {
n_ProdRef = c_ProdRef.concat(add)
} else {
n_ProdRef = c_ProdRef.replace(/GST/i, "NWGST")
}
document.getElementById("prodref").value = n_ProdRef;
}
Along with #indubitablee suggestion of onKeyup and specifying the .value of my first text field it all works.

Linking form and button to javascript command

I am trying to make a simple form and button work. I have linked to a JS Fiddle here View JS Fiddle here
<form>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="search" placeholder="enter sport">
<button type="submit" id="WFFsearch">Search</button>
</form>
$('#WFFsearch').on('click', function () {
var searchInput = $('#search').text();
var url = "http://espn.go.com/" + searchInput + "/statistics";
window.open(url);
});
I want to be able to enter "nba" without the quotation marks and click the search button, then have a new window which generates the following link http://espn.go.com/nba/statistics. The first part and the last part of all the urls will be the same, it's just the middle that changes (nba, nfl, mlb). Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

$('#WFFsearch').on('click', function () {
var searchInput = $('#search').val();
var url = "http://espn.go.com/" + searchInput + "/statistics";
window.open(url);
});
You need val() property, since input is in question, not text(). https://jsfiddle.net/1c93pqj0/2/

you wanna use the .val() instead of .text() as text gets the value between 2 tags <div>here is some text</div> and val gets the value <input value="some value"/>

EzPz! This is a very simple task. First of all though, since you're using jQ to establish your button's click event, you can either drop the attribute type="submit", OR (recommended), create your event on the form's submit. If it were me, I'd id the form and use the forms submit, so that you don't need any alters to your button type="submit" and enter key can still be used in search box to submit the form.
Also, you're trying to .text on an input. Input's have value. In jQuery you can get or set that value by calling .val() instead.
The code:
$('#frmGetStats').on('submit', function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
var searchInput = $('#search').val(),
url = "http://espn.go.com/" + searchInput + "/statistics",
win = window.open(url);
alert("In this sandbox, new windows don't work. \nHowever you can see the link is \n[" + url + "]");
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<form id="frmGetStats">
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="search" placeholder="enter sport">
<button id="WFFsearch" type="submit">Search</button>
</form>

To get the value of an input field, use .val(). .text() is for the text in a DOM element.
Clicking on the submit button submits the form by default, which reloads the page and kills the script. You need to return false from the event handler to prevent this.
$('#WFFsearch').on('click', function () {
var searchInput = $('#search').val();
var url = "http://espn.go.com/" + searchInput + "/statistics";
window.open(url);
return false;
});

How to check if a field has been populated with data using a javascript function?

Please note that i am a beginner in javascript. I've googled all the possible terms for my question but no luck. I wanted to know if there exists a javascript function that can be used to check if a field has been populated with data using another javascript function. No libraries please since i want to know the basics of javascript programming.
Edit:
I just wanted to clarify that scenario that i am into.
I have 3 input fields. These fields have their value assigned automatically by another javascript function. What i wanted to do is when this fields have their respected values i wanted to create a new input field that will calculate the sum of the value of the 3 fields.

As You are new Please try this whole code of HTML with Javascript code too.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script>
function copyText()
{
var TextValue = document.getElementById("field1").value
if(TextValue !=''){
alert(TextValue);
}
alert();
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="text" id="field1" value="Hello World!"><br>
<button onclick="copyText()">Copy Text</button>
</body>
</html>
Hope this works.

Hope this helps you
//Html Code
<input type="text" value="sdsd" onChange="checkValue(this.value)">
//Java Script Code
function checkValue(value){
if((value).trim()!==""){
alert('return true');
}
else{
alert('return false');
}
}

//HTML line:
<input type="text" id="txtAddress" />
//JS code:
function setValue() {
//first we set value in text field:
document.getElementById('txtAddress').value = 'new value';
TestFunction();
}
function TestFunction() {
//second we will get value from this filed and check wether it contains data or not:
var address = document.getElementById('txtAddress').value;
if (address != "") {
alert("Yes, field contains address");
}
else {
alert("Empty field, there is no address");
}
}

I'm not sure what are you trying to achieve.
If you want to check if the input to the field was made with Javascript : there's no way to make that UNLESS your Javascript input function stores such information in some place (for example, add specific class to the modified object). Then you can proceed with following:
If you want to check if there's any value in the field then you can use onchange (triggers on change, you can pass the object to the function and get every property attached to it - value, class etc.).
example:
function changeValue( object )
{
object.value = "new value";
object.classList.add("modified");
}
function isChanged( object )
{
if( object.classList.contains("modified") )
alert("I'm modified by JS!");
}
<input type="text" id="first" onchange="isChanged(this)">
It has been some time since I was writing JS, but this should work.
Edit: now I remember onchange triggers only, if element is edited by user, thus rendering onchange detection worthless. Well, you could use set interval with the following function:
function getModified() {
// somehow process with
// document.getElementsByClassName("modified");
}
setInterval( getModified(), 3000 ); // get JS modified elements every 3s

lets say this is your html field (text input for instance):
<input type="text" id="txtName" />
in order to get it's value with javascript, use document.getElementById('txtName').value - for example:
function alert_value() {
var value = document.getElementById('txtName').value;
alert(value);
}
hope that helps.
EDIT:
if this text field is added dynamically, i'd suggest including jQuery and set the following script:
$(function(){
$(document).on('keyup', '#txtName', function(){ alert($(this).val()) });
});
