Ticket #8151 (closed bug: invalid)

Opened 2 years ago

Last modified 2 years ago

Assignment using val() behaves differently for textfields than it does for hidden textfields.

Description

Show the original value of a text box 

document.getElementById("firstName").value

sample output: "Jimmy"

Here's where I see inconsistent behavior. Changing the field using .val() shouldn't modify the original value -- regular text boxes work as expected but hidden fields do not. 

$("#firstName").val("Drew")
document.getElementById("firstName").defaultValue

If #firstName is <input type="text"/> then this returns "Jimmy" which is correct.

If #firstName is <input type="hidden"/> then this returns "Drew" which is incorrect.
