jQuery jPicker reset completely

Question

If anyone experienced with jPicker, I would really like some help on this. I have a jPicker input box in a form, and when I post the form with Ajax, I try to reset the form back

Answer 1

You can try to unbind the jPicker from the element and then rebind it after you want to reset it, should make it back to default settings.

Answer 2

jPicker maintains the information for its control in the $.jPicker.List[] array. To remove the jPicker association with the control you will need to destroy its corresponding entry in the $.jPicker.List[] array.

Loop through the list of items in the array to find the one that references the control with

$.jPicker.List[index].id

When you find your control in the array, destroy it with

$.jPicker.List[index].destroy()

After destroying the array element, you will need to remove the SPAN jPicker html object associated with the control. If there is only one you can

$('span.jPicker').remove()

otherwise you will need to discover the specific html element

$(rowParent).find('span.jPicker').remove();

Optionally: if you are using class reference vs. id reference, use the .data() function to tag your control and use the following statement to retrieve the unique value

$( $.jPicker.List[index] ).data()

Answer 3

As explained above you could try something like this :

var id =$.jPicker.List[i].id; //getting the id of the element you've binded jpicker with
$.jPicker.List[i].destroy(); //destroying the instance in the jPicker List
$("#"+id).parent().find('span.jPicker').remove(); // destroying the span containing the graphical jPicker
$("#"+id).jPicker(); // And finally reinstancing the jPicker instance on your element

It should make blink your picker (removing then recreating).
