const[name,setName]=useState("")
const[phone,setPhone]=useState("")
const[email,setEmail]=useState("")
const[query,setQuery]=useState("")
const [submitted, setSubmitted] = useState(false)
const handleSubmit=(e)=>{
e.preventDefault()
console.log(e);
let data = {
name,
email,
phone,
query
}
console.log(data);
axios.post('http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/create/',data).then((res)=>{
console.log(res);
setSubmitted(true)
setName('')
setPhone('')
setEmail('')
setQuery('')
})
}
return (
<>
<div>
<h1>Contact Page</h1>
</div>
<div >
<form action="contact" method="post">
<input name="name" onChange={(e)=>{setName(e.target.value)}} placeholder="Name" / ><br />
<input name="phone" onChange={(e)=>{setPhone(e.target.value)}} placeholder="Phone" /><br />
<input name="email" onChange={(e)=>{setEmail(e.target.value)}} type="email" placeholder="E-mail" / ><br />
<textarea name="text" onChange={(e)=>{setQuery(e.target.value)}} placeholder="How can we help you?" ></textarea><br />
<button onClick={(e)=>{handleSubmit(e)}} value="Send" >Submit </button>
</form>
</div>
</>
)
}
Currently you are missing value
prop in your inputs so your inputs are uncontrolled components that's why you are not able to clear them after form submit.
Try to add value
prop like below:-
<input name="name" value={name} onChange={(e)=>{setName(e.target.value)}} placeholder="Name" / ><br />
<input name="phone" value={phone} onChange={(e)=>{setPhone(e.target.value)}} placeholder="Phone" /><br />
<input name="email" value={email} onChange={(e)=>{setEmail(e.target.value)}} type="email" placeholder="E-mail" / ><br />
<textarea name="text" value={query} onChange={(e)=>{setQuery(e.target.value)}} placeholder="How can we help you?" ></textarea><br />
Add value
prop your inputs then your form shall be cleared after submit:
<form>
<input name="name" value={name} onChange={(e)=>{setName(e.target.value)}} placeholder="Name" / ><br />
<input name="phone" value={phone} onChange={(e)=>{setPhone(e.target.value)}} placeholder="Phone" /><br />
<input name="email" value={email} onChange={(e)=>{setEmail(e.target.value)}} type="email" placeholder="E-mail" / ><br />
<textarea name="text" value={query} onChange={(e)=>{setQuery(e.target.value)}} placeholder="How can we help you?" ></textarea><br />
</form>
