jqueryHow do I set an input value using jQuery?


The following example code demonstrates how to set an input value using jQuery:

$("input").val("My New Value");

This code will set the value of the input element to "My New Value".

The code can be broken down into two parts:

  1. $("input") - This is a jQuery selector which will select all input elements on the page.
  2. .val("My New Value") - This is a jQuery method which will set the value of the selected elements to "My New Value".
