jQuery - Detect value change on hidden input field

$("input[type=hidden]").bind("change", function() {
       alert($(this).val()); 
 });

Changes in value to hidden elements don‘t automatically fire the .change() event. So, wherever it is that you‘re setting that value, you also have to tell jQuery to trigger it.

HTML 

<div id="message"></div>
<input type="hidden" id="testChange" value="0"  />    

var $message = $(‘#message‘);
var $testChange = $(‘#testChange‘);
var i = 1;

function updateChange() {
    $message.html($message.html() + ‘<p>Changed to ‘ + $testChange.val() + ‘</p>‘);
}

$testChange.on(‘change‘, updateChange);

setInterval(function() {
    $testChange.val(++i).trigger(‘change‘);; 
    console.log("value changed" +$testChange.val());
}, 3000);

updateChange();
