I normally use a function like...
private function resetFormItems():void
{
var formChildren:Array = jobRequest.getChildren();
for each(var theFormItem:FormItem in formChildren)
{
(theFormItem.getChildAt(0) as TextInput).text = "";
}
}
This way I don't need to worry about adding new form items to the clear
function.
HTH.
