如何访问livequery检测到的元素的值

Question

I am using $_SESSION to pass back a value in the event of page redirect.

As jquery cannot access $_SESSION I decided to use PHP to output the value to a hidden div and remove that div once the value had been picked up. I expect that there is a neater way to do this but I don't know how else to expose the $_SESSION variable to jquery.

<?php       
    $pass_Back = $session->get_Pass_Back();
    $session->clear_Pass_Back();
?>

<?php
    if (count($pass_Back) != 0){
        echo "<input class=\"field_Input_Left\" id=\"schedule_Description\" type=\"text\" name=\"schedule_Description\" value=\"" . array_shift($pass_Back) . "\"/><br />";
        echo "<div id=\"pass_Back\" style=\"visibilty: hidden;\" ></div>";
    } else {    
        echo "<input class=\"field_Input_Left\" id=\"schedule_Description\" type=\"text\" name=\"schedule_Description\"/><br />";
    }
?>

Once this was done I needed a method to let jquery know if and when this new element was added to the DOM. Hence I used the plugin livequery to match when the element added. This it does which is great.

But when I try to access the value in the div it states that it is undefined.

$("#pass_Back").livequery(function(){
    if ($("#class_Name").val() != 0){
        var class_Name = $("#class_Name").val();
        get_Schedule_Data(class_Name);
    } else {
        var class_Name = "ALL";
        get_Schedule_Data(class_Name);
    }   


    $value = $(this).attr("value");
    auto_Fill_Schedule($("#pass_Back").attr("value"));

    // destroy pass back

    $("#pass_Back").remove();
});

When reviewed in firebug I note that at the point that livequery finds the added element no html is displayed. The DOM is ready otherwise the livequery couldn't have functioned but is this why no value is found?

Any guideance gratefully received.

Don't use this:

$value = $(this).attr("value");

Do the following to get a value (for inputs in most of cases):

(assuming $(this) is your input)

$value = $(this).val();

For div cases, there is no value, but you can get the html or text from inside as the value:

(assuming $(this) is your div)

$value = $(this).html();
//or:
$value = $(this).text();

Just to know...

You can mix PHP with jQuery but take a look at my answer from this post for better understanding:

Is echoing Javascript code condtionally based on server-side logic considered harmful?
