I’ve had good feedback from the client I implemented this for. It’s worth noting that it’s only going to work in newer browsers, and you’ll want to wrap it in another condition in your OpacUserJS.
I like doing something like this: var pathname = window.location.pathname; if (pathname == '/cgi-bin/koha/opac-memberentry.pl'){ $(window).bind("pageshow", function() { var form = $('#memberentry-form'); form[0].reset(); }); } You could add some more checking around form as well. Probably using “form.length” since a selector that doesn’t match will usually still return an object I think. Maybe the pathname check is unnecessary, but I figure it saves the client browser from doing unnecessary work unless it’s on the correct page.
