Which makes sense as it's default value is now what's contained on the value field.

Exactly.

So, I guess what I need to do is have reset reload the form (which I know how) and empty out all the $vars... ???

You can't. At least, not permanently. You can use Javascript to "empty" the fields, but if the user refreshes, all the values would come back. Instead of <input type="reset"> You would use <input type="button" onClick="document.myForm.myFieldName.value='';" value="Clear"> Or, if you want to clear out everything, then you have the javascript null the values and then submit the form. -- S.
