You can use document ready :
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.6.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
$('#Name').val('testName');
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input id="Name" type="textbox" value=""/>
</body>
</html>
Used the id, Name, and set the value to 'testName' once the document is ready.

Well, if you're using jQuery, you could just include this in the function:
$("#Name").val(testval);
You might have to put the script in $(document).ready() though.

Try declaring it outside the function
<script type="text/javascript">
var testName;
function intialize()
{
testName="John";
}
</script>
But it will become a global variable.

This. It's easy, and you don't have to worry about any of this jquery mess.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.6.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function intialize()
{
var testName="John";
document.getElementById("Name").value = testname;
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="intialize()">
<input id="Name" type="textbox">
</body>
</html>

You have jQuery available so USE it. Don't use an older version than 1.6.1 though..
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.6.1.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var testName="John";
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#Name').val(testName);
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input id="Name" type="text">
</body>
</html>
