Hi Team

I have a form when i insert values to be stored to the local database, they dont get clear after being sent from the form they remained. I am struggling to understand how to implement if there is a logic.

What I have tried:

<form action="/" method="post">


       <!--Title-->
       <div class="form-group">
           <input asp-for="Title" id="Title" type="text" class="form-control" value="Title" />
       </div>

       <!--Description-->
       <div class="form-group">
           <input id="Description11" type="text" class="form-control" value="Description" />
       </div>

       <!--Date-->
       <div class="form-group">
           <input asp-for="Date" id="Date" type="Date" class="form-control" value="Date_Occured" />
       </div>

       <!--Time-->
       <div class="form-group">
           <input asp-for="Time" id="Time" type="time" class="form-control" value="Time"/>
       </div>

       <!--Assignment_Group-->
       <div class="form-group">
           <input asp-for="Assignment_Group" id="Assignment_Group" type="assignment_group" class="form-control" value="Assignment_Group" />
       </div>


       <!--Reported_CI-->

       <div class="form-group">
           <input asp-for="Reported_CI" id="Reported_CI" type="reported_ci" class="form-control" value="Reported_CI"/>
       </div>

       <!--Submit form-->
       <div class="form-group">
           <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" id="btnSubmit">Submit</button>
       </div>

   </form>

<script>

           $("#btnSubmit").click(function () {
               debugger;


               var Title = $("#Title").val();
               var Date = $("#Date").val();
               var Description = $("#Description11").val();
               var Date_Occured = $("#Date_Occured").val();
               var Time = $("#Time").val();
               var Assignment_Group = $("#Assignment_Group").val();
               var Reported_CI = $("#Reported_CI").val();

               alert(Title + Date + Description + Date_Occured + Time + Assignment_Group + Reported_CI );

               // Ajax call request transpoted to save values.
               $.ajax({
                   type: "POST",
                   url: "/Home/SaveIncidentTemplates?Title=" + Title + "&Date=" + Date + "&Description=" + Description + "&Date_Occured=" + Date_Occured + "&Time=" + Time + "&Assignment_Group=" + Assignment_Group + "&Reported_CI=" + Reported_CI,

                   dataType: "application/json",
                   success: function () {
                       alert("Saved successfully");
                   }

               })

           });



   </script>

Firstly, that's not a good way to pass the data. You're making a POST request, but passing everything in the URL as if it were a GET request. And you're not URL-encoding the values you send in the URL, so one wrong character by the user could corrupt the data you're inserting.

JavaScript

$.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: "/Home/SaveIncidentTemplates",
    data: {
        Title: Title,
        Date: Date,
        Description: Description,
        Date_Occured: Date_Occured,
        Time: Time,
        Assignment_Group: Assignment_Group,
        Reported_CI: Reported_CI
    },
    ...

Once the request succeeds, you then need to clear the form yourself:

JavaScript

...
success: function(){
    alert("Saved successfully");
    $("#Title").val("");
    $("#Date").val("");
    ...
}
