Get input value

Question

I have the following input

<input value="25" data-hidden-value="25" name="associations[agencies][ids][]" 
           data-hidden-name="associations[agencies][ids][]" class="string" type="hidden">

This input is dynamically generated, and don't have any ID. I'm trying to get the value using the following code:

campaignId = $("input[name='associations[agencies][ids][]]'").val();

But I always get undefined.

You have wrong selector. Try this

$('input[name="associations[agencies][ids][]"]').val();

The problem is with your selector - you closed the first opening [ in the wrong place. Proper line should be:

campaignId = $("input[name='associations[agencies][ids][]']").val();

Hope that helps ;)

You have a syntax error at input[name='xxx'] , the last single quote should be inside the last ]

change

$("input[name='associations[agencies][ids][]]'")

to

$("input[name='associations[agencies][ids][]']")

you just need to change the value of name that you are provided $("input[name='xyz']") you just misplace the ] inside the '

$("input[name='associations[agencies][ids][]]'").val()

to

 $("input[name='associations[agencies][ids][]']").val()
