I have this code on Wordpress post:

<input type=text id="testni" value="la">

and this code in functions.php:

<script type="text/javascript">
          $function(){
        $("#testni").attr("value", "petra");


          }
        </script>

If you need to call js in wordpress.. You need to add action in functions.php file. Try the below method.

<?php
add_action('wp_footer','custom_script');
function custom_script(){
 echo "<script type='text/javascript'>
          $function(){
        $('#testni').attr('value', 'petra');


          }
        </script>";
}
?>

Or else simply add your script in header.php or footer.php.

What you want is this 

<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
    $("#testni").val("petra");
});
</script>
