If I understand the question correctly, you can do this:

$.get('2.php', function(data) {
  var newVal = $('#2', data).val();
  $('#1').val(newVal);
});

We’re forgetting the IDs are numbers, it’s just an example here. All we’re doing is passing a context option to $(selector, context) to find the ID within the response, and taking its .val() for use.
