Get value from Javascript to Input type Hidden

I am just trying to add code in this javascript to get values of slide to input type="hidden", but i can't get value into input type="hidden", what do I do wrong? Anyway, thanks for your help!

This is javascript code:

// <![CDATA[
var hWidth, bWidth;

function setBgPos(v) {
    var off = v * hWidth;
    var pos = -bWidth + (v * bWidth);
    $('slider').setStyle({backgroundPosition: Math.round(pos - off) + 'px'});
}

function setSlideOutput(v) {
    $('percent').innerHTML = Math.round(v * 100) + '%';
}

Event.observe(window, 'load', function() {
    hWidth = $('slider-handle').getWidth();
    bWidth = $('slider-bar').getWidth();
    var slide = new Control.Slider('slider-handle', 'slider-bar', {
        sliderValue: 0.25,
        onSlide:
            function(v) {
                setBgPos(v);
                setSlideOutput(v);
                $('percentage').value = Math.round(v * 100) + '%';
            },
        onChange:
            function(v) {
                setBgPos(v);
                setSlideOutput(v);
                $('percentage').value = Math.round(v * 100) + '%';
            }
    });
    setBgPos(slide.value);
    setSlideOutput(slide.value);
});
// ]]>
