The closest I got to using in webpage was as follows:
<script>
$('#title').text(movie.title);
</script>
It works with lets say:
<h1 id="title"></h1>
However I would like it to be used in the value in asp hidden field eg
<asp:HiddenField ID="name" runat="server" Value="title" />
I am new to asp and javascript and jquery so any advice greatly appreciated.
Try to use:
$("[id$='name']").val(movie.title);
With jquery:
$('#name').val(movie.title);
OR
$('#<%= name.ClientId %>').val(movie.title)
With javascript
document.getelementid('name').value=movie.title;
You need to use Control.ClientID to get the Client ID of ASP.NET Control. After that you can simply use ID Selector and .val()
Use (jQuery)
$('#<%= name.ClientId %>').val(movie.title);
With Vanilla JS
document.getElementById('<%= name.ClientId %>').value=movie.title;
Try this..You have to set clientidmode property to static..
<asp:HiddenField ID="name" runat="server" Value="title" clientidmode="static"/>
After that set..
document.getelementid('name').value=movie.title;
