jQuery clear input[type=password]

Question

I'm trying to clear all the inputs that are password type when jquery validation fails - I tried the following (which doesn't work) :

$('input[type=password]').val('');

Any ideas?

Answer 1

Try with

$("input[type='password']").val('');

Answer 2

Try using the :password selector as it will make your code shorter:

$(':password').val('');

Also your initial code should work. Your problem is somewhere else. Unfortunately as you haven't stated in what context and how this is called or as you haven't explained what it doesn't work mean I cannot help you further.
