Description

Hi,

I was lacking the function of creating a reset button in my fluid template so I made a viewHelper for this purpose and attached it here. Please give me feedback whether it's useful or not :)

Regards,

Søren

No, haven't signed anything.

The patch was made during working hours, so it's my working email that are written in the feature so I need to get the corporation license signed. Normally i use my private email so the personal will be signed at the same time.

Hope to get back soon with it all signed :-)

Sorry for interfering.. But I'm asking myself: Why would you need a ViewHelper for this?
Instead of 

<f:form.reset value="Reset Fields" />

you could just write
<input type="reset" />

in your Fluid template directly.. Or am I missing something?

BTW: There's a typo in the second example in the Class DocComment

My wish for a rest button came after a "experience" where i was using f:form.submit and expected f:form.reset to be a available button as well, as it's a commonly used button for forms.

I'll close this issue for the following reasons:

  • as Bastian pointed out, not using a view helper is even more simple
  • resetting forms is ... very unnecessary in most cases, actually not good UX practice anyways
