To reference a hidden text field with the ID "Fld01" in an embedded JavaScript script on a Webflow page, you can follow these steps:

  1. Make sure you have the hidden text field added to your Webflow page. To add a hidden text field, go to the Webflow Designer and drag and drop a Text Field element onto your page. Then, in the element settings, check the "Hide field" option. Enter "Fld01" as the ID for this field.

  2. On your Webflow page, click on the "Settings" gear icon in the top-right corner of the screen.

  3. In the settings panel, go to the "Custom Code" tab.

  4. In the "Head Code" section, add a script tag to include your JavaScript code. It should look something like this:

<script>  // Your JavaScript code here</script>
  1. Inside the script tag, you can reference the hidden text field using its ID "Fld01" using JavaScript's document.getElementById() method. For example:
<script>  var hiddenTextField = document.getElementById('Fld01');  // Do something with the hidden text field</script>
  1. You can perform various operations on the hidden text field, such as getting its value using hiddenTextField.value, setting its value using hiddenTextField.value = 'new value', etc.

Remember to replace "// Your JavaScript code here" with your actual JavaScript code that interacts with the hidden text field.

By following these steps, you can reference the hidden text field with the ID "Fld01" in an embedded JavaScript script on your Webflow page.
