If you need to clear all the input fields irrespective of type in a form, try the below code.  The below code works even if your fields contains place holders.

    $.fn.clearForm = function() {
      return this.each(function() {
        $(':input', this).each(function() {
          var type = this.type, tag = this.tagName.toLowerCase();
          if (type == 'text' || type == 'password' || tag == 'textarea')
            this.value = '';
          else if (type == 'checkbox' || type == 'radio')
            this.checked = false;
          else if (tag == 'select')
            this.selectedIndex = -1;
        });
      });
    };
