PHP Form with Bootstrap Validation

Nolic

I have a php bootstrap validation form that when submitted sends the details to a database. The form works nicely. I have the validation and the success working, I have all the details going to the database but my issue is with clearing the form. When I press submit, it all works well except for it doesn't clear the form. This is my code....CAN ANYONE PLEASE HELP!!!

.on('success.form.bv', function(e) {
$('#success_message').slideDown({ opacity: "show" }, "slow") // Do something ...
$('#contact_form').data('bootstrapValidator').resetForm();

// Prevent form submission
e.preventDefault();

// Get the form instance
var $form = $(e.target);

// Get the BootstrapValidator instance
var bv = $form.data('bootstrapValidator');

// Use Ajax to submit form data
$.post($form.attr('action'), $form.serialize(), function(result) {
console.log(result);
}, 'json');
});

$(this).closest('form').find("input[type=text], textarea").val("");

Or

window.location.reload()

jQuery doesn't have a form reset method, you can use a native DOM method:

document.getElementById("contact_form").reset();

Or if you want to stay in jQuery land:

$("contact_form")[0].reset();

My JavaScript would be very limited. Do I add one of these to the bottom of the code already provided by Bootstrap Validator?

You'd add it to the post request for submitting the form. Once the submission has completed correctly, that's the point where you'd want to clear the form i'd imagine
