How to reset input type file using javascript

Question

I want to reset the contents of my file input:

<input type="file" id="uploadCaptureInputFile" class="win-content colors" accept="image/*" />

How should I do that?

Hello @kartik,

You need to wrap <input type = “file”> in to <form> tags and then you can reset input by resetting your form:

onClick="this.form.reset()"

Hope it helps!!

If not then its recommended to join our Java training class and learn about Java in detail.

Thank You!!

Using JavaScript you can also do that as follows.

document.getElementById("#control").value = "";
