variables and html

I have a javascript variable with a value and I would like a hidden
html text box to contain that value. How can I assign the textbox
value to the javascript variable's value?

If you have

<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="myHidden" ID="myHidden" VALUE="">

then you can do

document.formName.myHidden.value = myJavaScriptVariable;
