Using hook_form_alter one can easily add a "Reset" button to a Drupal form.
Here's a simple example:
/**
* Implementation of hook_form_alter().
*/
function mymodule_form_alter(&$form, &$form_state, $form_id) {
switch ($form_id) {
case 'myform':
$form['buttons']['reset_button'] = array(
'#type' => 'markup',
'#value' => '',
'#weight' => 2000,
);
break;
}
}
It may not be appropriate for you to put your new reset element into the buttons array. Use dpm() (part of the Devel module) to show what $form looks like. If you don't understand this, and the code above isn't working for you, you may try $form['reset_button'] = array....
Adjust the value of #weight to move the button around the form. dpm($form) will show you weights (if any) of existing elements so you can make educated decisions about the weight of your new field.
One last note about the '#type' => 'markup' line: this is not a requirement, but I like to include it for clarity.
