I have a need to reset individual form objects to their original
state. When the document loads I save the element like this:
var origFormData = {};
$(document).ready(function(){
// Save original form data for each input field
$(":input").each(function(){
origFormData[this.name] = $(this);
});
});
For example I have a form with fields named name, age, and dept
selectable by $("#name"), $("#age"), and $("#dept") respectably.
How would I go about later restoring/resetting a specific field. Is
there a simple way to overwrite the object represented by $("#name)
with origFormData.name?
