title: Get hidden field value Jquery?
body: <p>I have the following HTML </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;input type="hidden" name="conf1" value="7th IEEE/IFIP International Conference on Embedded and Ubiquitous Computing (EUC-09)"&gt;
      &lt;input type="hidden" name="conf2" value="IEEE International Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Processsing with Applications"&gt;
      &lt;input type="hidden" name="conf3" value="jkhga"&gt;
      &lt;input type="hidden" name="conf4" value="test"&gt;
      &lt;input type="hidden" name="conf5" value="The 3rd International Conference on Adaptive Business Information Systems (ABIS'09)"&gt;
  
      &lt;input type="text" name="published"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And i am trying to get the values of the hidden fields in to an array using jquery. Here is what i have tried:</p>
  
  <pre><code> var conferences = new Array();
  
          conferences[0] = $('#conf1').val();
          conferences[1] =$("[name='conf2']").val();
          conferences[2] =$("[name='conf3']").val();
          conferences[3] = $("[name='conf4']").val();
          conferences[4] =$("[name='conf5']").val();     
  </code></pre>
