Re: How to reset aikau form field values?

The button should not be inside the form, add alfButton after the form, not as "additional buttons". Then it will work. Maybe it also can work if you play a bi with scopes, but I don't know a solution, I just added a button after the form and used custom css to draw it on the same line Smiley Happy
