jQuery get value of input datetime-local

I need to get the value from input datetime-local, but the variable is empty, whereas everything is ok with text inputs. Here is code:

<script> var datetimeval = $("#datetime").val(); var textval = $("#text").val(); </script> <input id='text' type='text' /> <input id='datetime' type='datetime-local' />

Could you tell me please, how to fix it?

you need to add the script after adding the input elements

Try this

<input id='text' type='text' value="test"/> <input id='datetime' type='datetime-local' /> <script> var datetimeval = $("#datetime").val(); var textval = $("#text").val(); alert(textval); alert(datetimeval); </script>

Demo: Fiddle

Note: I gave default value to text input textbox

You should set its value of all parts, including y-m-d h:m, especially "h:m". It's ok for my case.
