Well I noticed that your code for clicking the clear button is actually in the function for clicking the join list button. I don't think you want that there. The two events are separate.

So you want take the code...

$("#clear_entries").click(function() {
   $("input[type=text]").val("");
   $("input[type=text]").after("*");
   $("#email_address1").focus();
});

... out from inside the curly braces of the $("#join_list").click() function and put it right after line 48 in your code there (the end of the click function). The ready function should setup both click functions for join_list and for clear_entries buttons.

I hope you understand. />
