When changing the value of a input field like this:

$('#lat').val(point.lat());

Where "lat" is the id of an input field, type="text", it is only working for the first time. When I call it afterwards, the changes do not show up in the browser.

Strange enough the inspector from FireBug shows the correct values, but when the user submits the form, only the values that have been written into the input field at the first try, are submitted.
