[HTML](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/1530/design-a-simple-stylish-calculator-using-html-css-and-javascript) [input](https://www.mindstick.com/forum/159209/how-can-i-read-convert-an-input-stream-into-a-string-in-java) box value using jQuery:

## jQuery val() Method :

HTML <input> with an id attribute id='MindstickId', you can more simply just use:

```
$(function () {   $('#MindstickId').val("Software");
});
```

\

Example: Set the value of the <input> field..

```
$("button").click(function(){
  $("input:text").val("Mind stick");
});
```

Syntax:

```
$(selector).val()  // without set any value
$(selector).val(value) //with set a value
$(selector).val(function(index,Mindstick))
```

I hope, It will be helpful for you.

Happy Coding :)
