Is there an after submit jQuery option?

I have a form that uploads a file and targets an iframe on the page. When the user clicks submit, I want the file contents to clear out.

I tried this

$('#imageaddform').submit(function(){

    $('#imagefile').val('');

});

But it clears the form before the submit, so nothing is ever uploaded.

Is how do I clear after submit?

If you have no other handlers bound, you could do something like this:

$('#imageaddform').submit(function(e) {

    e.preventDefault(); // don't submit multiple times

    this.submit(); // use the native submit method of the form element

    $('#imagefile').val(''); // blank the input

});
