how do i change the value of an input field with jquery?

i'm trying to use jquery to change the value of an input text box, but it's not working, here is my code...

    <fo开发者_高级运维rm method="get">
            <input id="temp" type="text" name="here" value="temp value" />
            <input class="form" type="radio" value="1" name="someForm" /> Enter something
            Here: <input id="input" type="text" name="here" value="test value" />
    </form>

    <script>

    $(document).ready(function () {
        $('.form').click(function () {
            var newvalue = $("#input").val();
            $("#temp").val(newvalue);
            $("#input").val($("#temp").val());
        });
    });

</script>

the value of the "#input" text box is not changing!!!!!! why is that??? what am i missing??? thanks a 10 million in advance p.s. the value of the text box is changing, but the value attribute of the input is NOT!!! even if i write...

var value = $("#temp").val();
$("#input").attr("value", value);

The value is not changing because you assign the value that #input already has.

Have a closer look:

var newvalue = $("#input").val();
$("#temp").val(newvalue);
$("#input").val($("#temp").val());

1. Let value of #input be foo.
2. You assign newvalue = value of #input = 'foo'
3. You set the value of #temp:
   value of #temp = newvalue = value of #input = 'foo'
4. You set the value of #input:
   value of #input = value of #temp = newvalue = value of #input = 'foo'

So depending on which field should get which value you have to change this ;)

You are selecting input not #input so you are setting the value of the first <input> not the element with id="input".

The first input is #temp so you are setting the value of that input to its current value.

Try:

$("#input").val($('#temp').val());

instead of:

$("input").val($(temp).val());
