I Haven't see your comment but you're right. In my example I show
two options to get/retrieve the values of the :input fields that I use
trying to set a perspective of the problem. The first one within a
function and a second example directly on a specific field. Saving the
whole inpu
@Alwin, it seems like all you're doing is abstracting my original
suggestion of storing the original value in the data object for the
corresponding input into another method that then uses the data method
(e.g. the holdData function has my original suggestion as its only
content). I'm not seeing f
Try to use something like this...
var form = function() {
var self = this;
this.holdData = function() {
$(':input').each(function(i, field) {
$(this).data('value', $(this).val())
});
return self;
};
this.retrieveData = function() {
$(':input').each(function(i, f
How about just clone-ing the form node and replace the current form
with the clone when you want to 'reset' it?

mkmanning's plugin, along with his recommendation to use jQuery's data
method instead of a global object, will work nicely.
To answer my other question re: getting the full html of an element,
there is this plugin: http://plugins.jquery.com/project/outerhtml.

I'll have a look. It sounds like this is the basis for what I need.
Thanks.

Form elements have "defaultValue" and "defaultSelected" attributes.
You might want to explore using those to "reset" the elements.

Haven't tried it but you could use my getAttributes plugin (http://
plugins.jquery.com/project/getAttributes) to store the current
attributes in the data as I suggested, and then retrieve it later.
That would get you not only the value but all other attributes.
$(document).ready(function(){

Thanks for the help on the other question. I missed the part about
reverting the value.
Actually I don't think that I need to explicitly store the value. If I
store the value of $(this) as shown I can later retrieve the value
for a specific field by e.g., calling ...
$(origFormData['age']).val(
Rather than create a global object, why not just take advantage of the
jQuery data method and store the original value with its corresponding
form element:
$(":input").each(function(){
$(this).data('origVal',this.value)
});

You forgot an important part of the line
origFormData[this.name] = $(this);
and this is you need to store the value, so
origFormData[this.name] = $(this).val();
and on your other topic, the code was also provided to revert the
value back to the saved value

should step over each input field in a form and conjure up values from

conjuring a value.
But the state-saving code should be mo
