Set textbox value

How can I set the value of a textBox value using Javascript?

I can read the value of the txtUserName field in my AJAX method. But in the two commented rows give an error:

  function handle_geolocation_query(position) {

       // $("input#MainContent_txtEnlem").val() = position.coords.latitude;
       // $("input#MainContent_txtBoylam").val() = position.coords.longitude;
        PageMethods.SendLocation($("input#MainContent_txtUserName").val(), position.coords.latitude, position.coords.longitude);
    }

I'm using jQuery 1.4.1.

The error in you code is that you are assigning the value to function. What you should do is pass the value as agrument, so your code will be:

$("#MainContent_txtEnlem").val( position.coords.latitude);
$("#MainContent_txtBoylam").val(position.coords.longitude);

Some other points:

  • If you are making use of id then there is no need to write input#....
  • This is a jQuery function. It's not pure JavaScript.

I think it gives you an error because you're trying to assign a value to a function.

You should be able to just use $("#textboxId").val("some text"); What error does it give when you try this?
