Well if I understand the question correctly, ‘hdf’ is the ID of the hidden field, so this will get you the value then… If I have misunderstood let me know.

I assume by thick box you mean you want to get a control inside an iframe or something similiar… here’s how.

var hdfVal = $('#myIFrameID').contents().find('#hdf').val();

Or simply, just need to get a value of a control by ID…

var hdfVal = $('#hdf').val();
