Question

My knowledge about javascript is very low; thus, this is a simple question. I have a simple jQuery Ajax function as

$(document).ready(function(){
   $('#txtValue').keyup(function(event){
      if(event.which == 13){
            sendValue($(this).val());   
      }
   }); 
});

function sendValue(str){
    $.post("test.php",{ sendValue: str },
    function(data){
        $('#display').html(data.returnValue);
    }, "json");
}

This sends the json response to with id=”display”

<input type="text" name="txtValue" value="" id="txtValue">
<div id="display"></div>

But instead I want to put the json response as value of another INPUT element in a different form as

<form method="get" action="result.php">
<input id="DISPLAY" type="text" name="something" value="" />
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

I want to put json response to and instead of

If you want to put return value to input, you need to use .val(data.returnValue) instead of .html(data.returnValue)
