How about if I post at least one reasonably interesting bit of information having to do with design today? I thought it sounded like a good idea too. Why not do all of your users a favor and join the movement to ban clear and reset buttons from web forms.
“These throwbacks to computer science sophomores are a bane to civilized discourse. The only reason they exist is to accidentally erase the form you’ve just spent ten minutes filling out, because they are inevitably placed a hair’s breadth away from the submit button!”
How can something so obviously useless still be found as a standard form element on so many pages? Good question indeed, because I’m guilty of using them too. Remind me to update that page before the next code rollout.
