I don't understand the use case... What the purpose of updating an hidden field? You can certainly create a dom element with an id and hidden it, but the usage for such a field is to manipulate dom element with js before reinject the proper selected data into the proper form field in order to the information to get parsed and updated in the back end...
Maybe you should disclosed what you exactly intended to do, instead of asking how to do each little step, so we can better help you that way...
