Meteor form textbox dont clear after submit

I am running Meteor 1.4 and i try to cler the textbox with the submit button i already red every blog post about this problem but nothing is fixing it

Here is my HTML

<template name="NeuesEvent">
     <head>
    <title>Event_Planner</title>
  </head>

  <body>
    {{> NavBar}}

        <form class="add-event" >
            <input type="text" name="name" placeholder="Event Name" />
            <input type="submit" value="Bestätigen" />
        </form>

  </body>
</template>

and this is the js 

Template.NeuesEvent.events({
    "submit .add-event": function(event){
        var name = event.target.name.value;

        Events.insert({
            name: name,
            createdAt: new Date()
        });

        event.target.text.value = "";

        return false;
    }
});

everything is in the right folder and works fine only the clear function doesnt work help is really appreciated Thanks ;)

Solution

  • This could possibly just be a typo:

    Try this code:

    Template.NeuesEvent.events({
    "submit .add-event": function(event){
        var name = event.target.name.value;

        Events.insert({
            name: name,
            createdAt: new Date()
        });

        event.target.name.value = "";

        return false;
    }
});

    Changed the line event.target.text.value = ""; to event.target.name.value = "";
