How can I reset a form with jQuery chosen plugin?

Question

I have a bunch of select elements in a form with which I am using the Jquery Chosen plugin. How can I reset the form? The following does not work:

Answer 1

You'll need to reset the value of the field, then trigger the liszt:updated event on the input to get it to update, ive made a fiddle with a working example here.

http://jsfiddle.net/VSpa3/3/

$(".chzn-select").chosen();
$('a').click(function(){
    $(".chzn-select").val('').trigger("liszt:updated");
});​

Since the release of chosen v1.0 the trigger is now called 'chosen:updated'. Anyone using this new version needs to trigger the update using

$(".chosen-select").val('').trigger("chosen:updated");

Answer 2

$("#Your_id").trigger("chosen:updated");

This worked for me

Answer 3

You could try this:

$('select').chosen('destroy');  

$('select').prop("selectedIndex", -1);   
$('select').chosen();

Answer 4

None of the answers here worked for me. Im using chosen select with the multiple attribute. Normal submit form button didnt do the trick either. So i just had a function do this upon click.

//Gets the selected values
var selected = [];
    for (var option of document.getElementById('mySelect').options) {
        if (option.selected) {
            selected.push(option.value);
        }

    }

//Resets the form
document.getElementById('form1').reset();

//Chosen values doesnt get reset, so we do this manually
//Removes the values selected by clicking on the x icon
$link = $('a.search-choice-close');
            var i;
            for (i = 0; i < selected.length; i++) {
                $link[i].click();
            }

Answer 5

In jQuery something like this should work

<input name="Text1" id="something" type="text">

<input type="reset" id="reset_me"/>


$("#reset_me").click(function() { 
$("#something").val("");
});

Answer 6

None of the previous options work for me. I had to do it like the old school, even using some native javascript, here is the code:

$('#dllSample option').each(function(){
     $(this)[0].selected = false;   
});
$("#dllSample").trigger("chosen:updated");
