i want to be able to clear the value in the text box as soon as I click on it. I thought the code may be something like this:

onClick="(this.value='')"

Any Suggestions?

Moved to Javascript forum

If u want to clear all the text box and change other controls to inital mode then u can simply have your controls inside a form and then use the following code

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
<script language="javascript">

fromreset()

{

myform.reset(); //will reset all the controls in ur page to initial stage.

(or) 

document.myform.[textbox Id] = " "; // will clear the textbox alone

}
 
<form name="myform" id="myform">

your code

may be you have some button ... on that button's onclick option

onclick = "javascript:formreset();">

</form>

... what's wrong with it? the following example works just fine (actually tested in IE, MOZ, FF):

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
<input type="text" id="tx" name="tx" value="click" onclick="this.value='';"/>

post some lines of code where an error occurs

kind regards ...

It works, I just added:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

onclick="this.value='';"

Thanks a lot!
