Passing value to form in Bootstrap Modal

Vote count:

I'm trying to pass the user_id contained in my database to a form that's displayed within a Bootstrap Modal upon clicking a button.

The button:

<td id="fired"><button class="btn btn-default btn-danger btn-xs fired" data-id="<?php echo $row['user_id']; ?>">Fired</button></td> 

JQuery:

$(document).ready(function(){
   $(".fired").click(function(){
     $("#user_id").val($(this).attr('data-id')); 
     $('#firedModal').modal('show');
   });
});

Modal:

<div class="modal fade" id="firedModal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="firedModal" aria-hidden="true">
  <div class="modal-dialog">
    <div class="modal-content">
      <div class="modal-header">
        <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal"><span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span><span class="sr-only">Close</span></button>
        <h4 class="modal-title" id="firedModal">Fire Habbo</h4>
      </div>
      <div class="modal-body">
        <form class="form-signin" role="form" action="" method="post">      
                <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Firing Reason" name="fired_reason" required autofocus />

                <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Firing Tag" name="fired_tag" required />

                <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Date" name="fired_date" required />

                <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Status (MAY JOIN AS RECRUIT/PARDONED/NEVER REHIRE)" name="fired_status" />

                <input type="hidden" class="form-control" name="user_id" value="" />

    </div>
    <div class="modal-footer">
        <button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Fire</button>
    </form>
        <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

However, on clicking the button the modal shows but the value of the user_id input is not filled by the row's user_id. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.
