Help me get value this tag texterea

Answer 1

Textareas do not have a value attribute ^{documentation} (so do not use one). You have to put the value between the opening and closing tag <textarea> value here </textarea>

and also id’s cannot start with _ ^documentaion so change that too, and it should work.

html

<input type="text" name="productname_" id="productname_" value="demo"/>
<textarea name="description_" id="description_">demo</textarea>
<input type="text" name="productname" id="productname" />
<textarea name="description" id="description" ></textarea>

javascript

$(document).ready(function(){
        $('.next').click(function(){
            $('input#productname').val($('input#productname_').val()); 
            $('textarea#description').val($('textarea#description_').val());
        }); 
    });
