get text from text input using jquery in javascript

To get the value of a text input using jQuery, you can use the .val() method. Here's an example:

<input type="text" id="myInput">

<script>
  // Get the value of the text input with ID "myInput"
  var inputValue = $("#myInput").val();

  // Do something with the value (e.g. log it to the console)
  console.log("The input value is: " + inputValue);
</script>

In this example, we use the CSS selector #myInput to select the text input by its ID, and then call the .val() method to get its value. Finally, we log the value to the console using console.log().
