How do i clear the contents of a form <textarea> when the user submits?

I want this to only occur for the text area no other fields

Thanks in advance:thumbsup:

formName.testAreaName.value=''';

put that in the function that deals with the submitted data. Or when the page is loaded again after the form has been submitted. Ot just shove it in an a href tag and let the user click to clear manually.

but why do you want it cleared before the form is submitted? just curious.
