If you're printing out the submitted values when you write the form again, then remove the code that prints the values. If you're submitting via ajax then you'll need to add some Javascript to clear the fields.

<input type="reset" name="reset" value="Reset Form!">

Should work!

he wants it cleared automatically per his requirements, not manually with the user having to click a button.
