Hello,
I made a page containing tournament info for a client. The idea is to have all the tournament info at the top and then a fill-able entry-form at the bottom so the participants can fill it out using acrobat reader.

The challenge is that my client wants to be able to edit the top part of the page and make minimal text changes, since she does not have acrobat pro and she is not a designer, I can not really give her the native file that I used to create the layout of the page, therefore I created the layout with a couple of text fields where she could change info at her convenience (like the date of the tournament and the price). However at the bottom of the same page, there is the entry form that the tournament participants will fill out using acrobat reader. My question is...

How can I create a button or something similar, so the tournament participants can clear out only the bottom of the page where the entry form is? without clearing the other text fields that are part of the tournament info at the top of the page.

PLEASE HELP!

Thanks in advance.

You can use the formtool to create a button with a mouseup acrtion of "Reset a form" and select the fields to reset or you can use JavaScript to reset the form and specify an array of field names to reset.
