Trying to set value on hidden parameter on click of submit button in form

Question

Trying to set a parameter on a hidden field on click of submit button.

    $('.delete').on('click', function() {
        $('#id').val('1000');
    });

This is the hidden field:

    <input type="hidden" name="itemId" id="id" />

And this is one of my submit buttons:

    <input type="submit" value="Delete item" class="delete" />

However at the server the itemId field is empty.

Answer 1

Try to do it by using Jquery .attr() function :

Change:

$('.delete').on('click', function() {
$('#id').val('1000');
});

To:

$('.delete').click(function() {
$('#id').attr('value','1000');
});
