how to reset | 易学教程

I am developing a metro app with VS2012 and Javascript

I want to reset the contents of my file input:

<input type="file" id="uploadCaptureInputFile" class="win-content colors" accept="image/*" />

How should I do that?

The jQuery solution that @dhaval-marthak posted in the comments obviously works, but if you look at the actual jQuery call it's pretty easy to see what jQuery is doing, just setting the value attribute to an empty string. So in "pure" JavaScript it would be:

document.getElementById("uploadCaptureInputFile").value = "";

You need to wrap <input type = “file”> in to <form> tags and then you can reset input by resetting your form:

onClick="this.form.reset()"

This is the BEST solution:

input.value = ''

if(!/safari/i.test(navigator.userAgent)){
  input.type = ''
  input.type = 'file'
}

Of all the answers here this is the fastest solution. No input clone, no form reset!

I checked it in all browsers (it even has IE8 support).

You can just clone it and replace it with itself, with all events still attached:

<input type="file" id="control">

and

var input = $("#control");

function something_happens() {
    input.replaceWith(input.val('').clone(true));
};

Thanks : Css-tricks.com

In case you have the following:

<input type="file" id="fileControl">

then just do:

$("#fileControl").val('');

to reset the file control.

Another solution (without selecting HTML DOM elements )

If you added 'change' event listener on that input, then in javascript code you can call (for some specified conditions):

event.target.value = '';

For example in HTML:

<input type="file" onChange="onChangeFunction(event)">

And in javascript:

onChangeFunction(event) {
  let fileList = event.target.files;
  let file = fileList[0];
  let extension = file.name.match(/(?<=\.)\w+$/g)[0].toLowerCase(); // assuming that this file has any extension

  if (extension === 'jpg') {
    alert('Good file extension!');
  }
  else {
    event.target.value = '';
    alert('Wrong file extension! File input is cleared.');
  }

SOLUTION

The following code worked for me with jQuery. It works in every browser and allows to preserve events and custom properties.

var $el = $('#uploadCaptureInputFile');
$el.wrap('<form>').closest('form').get(0).reset();
$el.unwrap();

Resetting a file upload button is so easy using pure JavaScript!

There are few ways to do it, but the must straightforward way which is working well in many browser is changing the filed value to nothing, that way the upload filed gets reset, also try to use pure javascript rather than any framework, I created the code below, just check it out (ES6):

function resetFile() {
  const file = document.querySelector('.file');
  file.value = '';
}

<input type="file" class="file" />
<button onclick="resetFile()">Reset file</button>

I use for vuejs

   <input
          type="file"
          ref="fileref"
          @change="onChange"/>

this.$refs.fileref.value = ''

Particularly for Angular

document.getElementById('uploadFile').value = "";

Will work, But if you use Angular It will say "Property 'value' does not exist on type 'HTMLElement'.any"

document.getElementById() returns the type HTMLElement which does not contain a value property. So, cast it into HTMLInputElement

(<HTMLInputElement>document.getElementById('uploadFile')).value = "";

EXTRA :-

However, we should not use document.xyz() DOM manipulation in angular.

To do that angular has provided @VIewChild, @ViewChildren, etc which are document.querySelector(), document.queryselectorAll() respectively.

Even I haven't read it. Better to follows expert's blogs

The reseting input file is on very single

$('input[type=file]').val(null);

If you bind reset the file in change other field of the form, or load form with ajax.

This example is applicable

selector for example is $('input[type=text]') or any element of the form

event click, change, or any event

$('body').delegate('event', 'selector', function(){
     $('input[type=file]').val(null) ;
});

With IE 10 I resolved the problem with :

    var file = document.getElementById("file-input");
    file.removeAttribute('value');
    file.parentNode.replaceChild(file.cloneNode(true),file);

where :

<input accept="image/*" onchange="angular.element(this).scope().uploadFile(this)" id="file-input" type="file"/>

document.getElementById("uploadCaptureInputFile").value = "";

Just use:

$('input[type=file]').val('');

With angular you can create a template variable and set the value to null

<input type="file" #fileUploader />
<button (click)="fileUploader.value = null">Reset from UI</button>

Or you can create a method to reset like this

component.ts

  @ViewChild('fileUploader') fileUploader:ElementRef;

  resetFileUploader() { 
    this.fileUploader.nativeElement.value = null;
  }

template

<input type="file"/>
<button (click)="resetFileUploader()">Reset from Component</button>

stackblitz demo

You can´t reset that since it is an read-only file. you can clone it to workaround the problem.

You should try this:

$("#uploadCaptureInputFile").val('');

This could be done like this

var inputfile= $('#uploadCaptureInputFile')
$('#reset').on('click',function(){
inputfile.replaceWith(inputfile.val('').clone(true));
})

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

<input type="file" id="uploadCaptureInputFile" class="win-content colors" accept="image/*" />
<a href="" id="reset">Reset</a>

There are many approaches and i will suggest to go with ref attachment to input.

<input
    id="image"
    type="file"
    required
    ref={ref => this.fileInput = ref}
    multiple
    onChange={this.onFileChangeHandler}
/>

to clear value after submit.

this.fileInput.value = "";

jQuery solution:

    $('input').on('change',function(){
                $(this).get(0).value = '';
                $(this).get(0).type = '';
                $(this).get(0).type = 'file';
            });

I faced the issue with ng2-file-upload for angular. if you are looking for the solution in angular refer below code

HTML:

<input type="file" name="myfile" #activeFrameinputFile ng2FileSelect [uploader]="frameUploader" (change)="frameUploader.uploadAll()" />

component

import { Component, OnInit, ElementRef, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';

@ViewChild('activeFrameinputFile')InputFrameVariable: ElementRef;

this.frameUploader.onSuccessItem = (item, response, status, headers) => {

`this.`**InputFrameVariable**`.nativeElement.value = '';`

};

If you have several files in your form but only want one of them to be reset:

if you use boostrap, jquery, filestyle to display the input file form :

$("#"+idInput).filestyle('clear');

var fileInput = $('#uploadCaptureInputFile');
fileInput.replaceWith(fileInput.val('').clone(true));

Works for dynamic controls too.

Javascript

<input type="file" onchange="FileValidate(this)" />

function FileValidate(object) {
    if ((object.files[0].size / 1024 / 1024) > 1) {   //greater than 1 MB         
        $(object).val('');
    }     
}

JQuery

<input type="file" class="UpoloadFileSize">

$(document).ready(function () {

    $('.UpoloadFileSize').bind('change', function () {                
        if ((this.files[0].size / 1024000) > 1.5) { //greater than 1.5 MB
            $(this).val('');
            alert('Size exceeded !!');
        }
    });

});

function resetImageField() {
      var $el = $('#uploadCaptureInputFile');                                        $el.wrap('<form>').closest('form').get(0).reset();
    $el.unwrap();
}

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<input type="file" id="uploadCaptureInputFile" class="win-content colors" accept="image/*" />
<button onclick="resetImageField()">Reset field</button>
