I have an HTML input with a link in the value.



<input type = 'text' value = 'http://www.link.com' id = 'link' />


I am using jQuery to change the value on a certain event.



$('#link').val('new value');


The above code changes the value of the text box but doesn't change the value in the code (value = 'http://www.link.com' stays unchanged). I need the value = '' to change as well.

Use attr instead.

$('#link').attr('value', 'new value');
