How to add 2 textbox values in asp.net using javascript
I have 2 textboxes in my asp.net page and also have one hidden field in my asp.net page, my hidden field will always have a numeric value like 123.00 and my textbox will always have a numeric value too. eg 20.00 I want to add this hidden field value and textbox and display it in the second textbox via javascript
I wrote the following code for this
var amt = document.getElementById("txtsecond");
var hiddenamt = document.getElementById("AmtHidden").value
var fee = document.getElementById("txtFirst").value;
amt.value = hiddenamt + fee;
this should give me a result, for example 123.00 + 20.00 = 143.00, but that concatenates the value of the hidden cost and cost and gives me a result like 12320.00 in my first text box.
can someone tell me what is wrong in my code and what is the correct way to get the desired value

the input value is just a string - convert to float parseFloat(foo)
in JS and you will be fine
edited to make a float as I notice this is probably important to you
