title: How is user input submitted in bootstrap 3 form?
body: <p>I'm using bootstrap 3, which includes jquery 1.11.2.min.js. I'm updating a search webpage with two textfields: keyword and city,state,zip. I have a script for the search results that needs to pull the user input that's typed into these two search textfields for finding the desired search results. </p>
  
  <p>Visual explanation:
  My search bar with placeholders and search button:
  <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/SHVXM.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
  
  <p>My search bar with my user input (searching for an engineering job in Boston):
  <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/pFqhO.png" alt="enter image description here">
  In the HTML, there is no unique value (value="Engineer" or value="Boston") created for my engineering job in Boston search:
  <img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/zjl2I.png" alt="enter image description here"></p>
  
  <p>Without value="Engineer" and value="Boston" I cannot tell my script to display search results of engineering jobs in Boston. Where do I find/create this to pull into my search script?</p>
  
  <p>Is this located in the bootstrap.js file anywhere? I'm having trouble figuring out where/how this form is pulling the user input value (without having to use value="" for each input).</p>
  
  <p>Your help is much appreciated - my form is below.</p>
