Call cancel button from ajax(JS)

ghjk

I'm using ajax in my php site. In there I have two buttons named as submit and cancel. When I click submit button it validates data using ajax. (No need to use form for this). But the following code is not working for cancel button

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 function Cancel(){

cancel = document.getElementById('test').value.reset();

}

If I put form,

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

(<form name"test.php">)

cancel button is working but errors return from the submit button are gone. Could someone pls help me ?

first, there is no native reset() method to the String object (doing a reset I'd rather define element.value = "";)

second, sumbit/reset buttons are supposed to be used in forms (mind that you can have multiple forms and a submit/reset button works only on the form, where it is defined). you should rather use the normal click buttons if you don't have a <form> element*.

* - semantically it doesn't make sense to have a submit button without the corresponding form (i.e. without something to submit)
