Try the most obvious method: '("#hiddenfieldId").val(' or
'("#hiddenfieldId")[0].value =' or  '("#hiddenfieldId").get(0).value
='
assuming the hidden field is as specified below and the coder using
uniqueid.

<input type="hidden" id="hiddenfieldId" name="hiddenfieldId" />

If the code cannot be found, the original coder may use class name or
other attributes.

Good luck, modifying a 4000+ lines of code web page is a very
challenging task
