input value update with Jquery not working

I have a Drupal 7 site that I am trying to use Jquery to modify an exposed filter search form using Jquery. It works for some input fields, but not the one I want. Using the code below, test-input-one and test-input-two work fine, but the Drupal generated input field edit-field-s-city-value does not. The Jquery code builds a drop down list then is supposed to update the other input boxes when the user selects something.

I am using drupal_add_js('misc/jscodefile.js'); in my ..views.tpl.php file to include my Jquery code.

The material Jquery code (I added the // comments)

$(document).ready(function($) {     
                ...           
                select: function( event, ui ) {
                log( ui.item ?
                    "Selected: " + ui.item.label :
                    "Nothing selected, input was " + this.value);
                $("#test-input-one").val(ui.item.mcity);  // this works!
                $("#test-input-two").val(ui.item.mstate); // this works!            
                $("#edit-field-s-city-value").val(ui.item.mcity);  // this does not work!!
                 ...
                });

The HTML generated by drupal with PHP is:

              <div id="edit-field-s-city-value-wrapper" class="views-exposed-widget views-widget-filter-field_s_city_value">
                  <label for="edit-field-s-city-value">
            City          </label>
                        <div class="views-widget">
          <div class="form-item form-type-textfield form-item-field-s-city-value">
 <input type="text" id="**edit-field-s-city-value**" name="field_s_city_value" value="" size="20" maxlength="30" class="form-text" />
</div>
        </div>
              </div>
          <div id="edit-field-s-zip-value-wrapper" class="views-exposed-widget views-widget-filter-field_s_zip_value">
                  <label for="edit-field-s-zip-value">
            Zip (field_s_zip)          </label>
                        <div class="views-widget">
          <div class="form-item form-type-textfield form-item-field-s-zip-value">
 <input type="text" id="edit-field-s-zip-value" name="field_s_zip_value" value="" size="10" maxlength="10" class="form-text" />
</div>
        </div>
              </div>
                    <div class="views-exposed-widget views-submit-button">
      <input type="submit" id="edit-submit-test-view" name="" value="Apply" class="form-submit" />    </div>
      </div>

  <input type="text" id="test-input-one" name="one_value" value="" size="18" maxlength="40" class="form-text">
  <input type="text" id="test-input-two" name="two_value" value="" size="6" maxlength="10" class="form-text">

I am thinking there is something funny with the nested divs, css tags or something, but I am at a loss. Thanks.

The only way I could imagine this to go wrong is when the id "edit-field-s-city-value" is not unique.
