Set jquery slider value in code

I have implemented wizard steps in MVC and am trying to use a jquery slider to advance on step as you progress through wizard.

I am providing the total number of questions and the current question via hidden values.

For some reason the slider is not progressing;

<script type="text/javascript">
var i = $('input[name=NumberTotal]').val();
var x = $('input[name=ThisNumber]').val();

$(function() {
$("#slider-range-max").slider({
range: "max",
min: 1,
max: i,
value: x,
slide: function(event, ui) {
x = ui.value
}
});
$("#question").val($("#slider-range-max").slider("value"));
});
</script>

Why is this not working?

Hi folks

Thanks for your replies. Yes I am using 1.8 or above

Could you provide a code snippet?

I want the slider to be moved by code and not allowed by mouse

Thanks

Forgot to say

I am loading new view each time I click wizard step so it is refreshed every time

I tried your solution but I did not get an alert popup

Then maybe

var i = $('input[name=NumberTotal]').val();

and

var x = $('input[name=ThisNumber]').val();

are not getting the values you think they'd get? Have you tried to alert them on every step of the wizard to check that the values are being correctly passed to the slider?
