use f:ajax

Your text field is obviosly binded to some property in backing bean. You can call the method of backing bean, which will null the appropriate property. Specifying the f:ajax tag, you will mention what action should be called and what ui component will be updated.

That only works when the OP is using JSF 2.0. The OP didn't mention the JSF version at all. – BalusC Nov 25 '10 at 11:47

----->>> JSPX File

< ice:inputText id="nameId" value="#{createBrandBean.brand.name}" size="30" maxlength="40" tabindex="2" onkeydown="moveFocus(event, 'aliasId')" />

< ice:commandButton value="Save" id="saveButton" action="#{createBrandBean.createBrand}" tabindex="5" styleClass="std-btn" />

--- >> in my createBrandBean.java File

private BrandVO brand; // Create a POJO Object

public String createBrand() {

brand.setName("");

or

brand = new BrandVO();

return "SUCCESS";

}
