how to add to value of an input field with Jquery
<p>I have a input field like below,</p>

<pre><code> &lt;input name="update_price" type="text" id="update_price" value="£" size="8" 
        maxlength="8" /&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>I'd like to get some price value from the value of a select box and add it after the £ sign, how is this achieved in jquery,</p>

<pre><code>  &lt;form&gt;
                &lt;select name="select" id="select"&gt;
                  &lt;option&gt;Select your pizza&lt;/option&gt;
                  &lt;option value="6.65"&gt;NY, 10&amp;quot;, £6.65&lt;/option&gt;
                  &lt;option value="8.95"&gt;NY, 12&amp;quot;, £8.95&lt;/option&gt;
                  &lt;option value="11.95"&gt;NY, 16&amp;quot;, £11.95&lt;/option&gt;
                  &lt;option value="3.45"&gt;Chicago, 7&amp;quot;, £3.45&lt;/option&gt;
                  &lt;option value="6.65"&gt;Chicago, 10&amp;quot;, £6.65&lt;/option&gt;
                  &lt;option value="8.95"&gt;Chicago, 12&amp;quot;, £8.95&lt;/option&gt;
                  &lt;option value="11.95"&gt;Chicago, 16&amp;quot;, £11.95&lt;/option&gt;
                  &lt;option value="19.95"&gt;Chicago, Beast 24&amp;quot; x 18&amp;quot;, £19.95&lt;/option&gt;
                 &lt;/select&gt;
         &lt;/form&gt;



    $(function()
    {
   $('#select').change( function() {

 $('input[name=update_price]').val($("#select :selected").val() );
  });
   });
</code></pre>

<p>it works with the code above but the £ sign disappears, any help would be appreciated.</p>
