			EVENT: onreset
			onreset="action" The onreset event occurs when a user resets or clears a form, rather than submitting. The event causes a script to execute that performs a desired task. For example, you could call a function or display an alert box offering additional information to the user. These six events are useful when dealing with forms and form elements: onblur - runs a script when the element loses focus. onchange - runs a script when the element changes. onfocus - runs a script when the element gets the focus. onreset - runs a script when the form is reset. onselect - runs a script when the element is selected. onsubmit- runs a script when the form is submitted. In this example, clicking the reset button causes an alert box to be displayed with a message.
