Clear Form Data on Add Record

When I click save on my add record page, I am redirected back to the add page again, but the form data is still held and if a user refreshes the screen they can submit duplicate record info if they do not pay attention to the browser warning?

Is there a way to clear the form data after the record add and before they are presented with anew form.

By default Add page fields are cleared after the record is added. Do you use any code in events like BeforeAdd? If you remove return true; from BeforeAdd event record won't be added and data in the form will be preserved.

I have the following added to the JavaScript on Load event to set the tab order.

$("input[id^='value_Requestor_Name']").attr('tabindex', 1);

$("input[id^='value_Requestor_Email']").attr('tabindex', 2);

$("input[id^='value_Requestor_Phone']").attr('tabindex', 3);

$("select[id^='value_Pickup_Location']").attr('tabindex', 4);

$("select[id^='value_Destination_Location']").attr('tabindex', 5);

$("input[id^='value_Earliest_Pickup_Date']").attr('tabindex', 6);

$("input[id^='value_Latest_Pickup_Date']").attr('tabindex', 7);

$("input[id^='value_Item_Weight']").attr('tabindex', 8);

$("input[id^='value_Item_Size']").attr('tabindex', 9);

$("textarea[id^='value_Details']").attr('tabindex', 10);
// Place event code here.

This code alone should not be causing this kind of behavior.
