title: javascript: why won't this cause all the forms on a page to reset?
body: <p>good evening fellow code bashers:</p>
  
  <p>i know it should be simple, but i'm tired and just want to get it done.  this is how i thought it should be done, which is identical to <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2146348/javascript-html-how-to-iterate-through-all-the-forms-on-a-page">how this fellow did it</a>, <em>BUT</em> <code>numberOfForms</code> comes up ZERO, instead of THREE (that's how many forms are on the page, all named &amp; id'd).  what did i miss?</p>
  
  <pre><code>var numberOfForms = document.getElementsByTagName("form");
  console.log("numberOfForms: " + numberOfForms);
  for (var i=0; i&lt;numberOfForms.length; i++)
  {
    document.forms[i].reset;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>shed some light, plz.  then i can punch out and hit the hay.</p>
