jQuery access input hidden value

Question

How can I access tag\'s value attribute using jQuery?

Answer 1

To get value, use:

$.each($('input'),function(i,val){
    if($(this).attr("type")=="hidden"){
        var valueOfHidFiled=$(this).val();
        alert(valueOfHidFiled);
    }
});

or:

var valueOfHidFiled=$('input[type=hidden]').val();
alert(valueOfHidFiled);

To set value, use:

$('input[type=hidden]').attr('value',newValue);
