How to pass form value to hidden variable on same page

I have a html page with a form in it. The form prompts for a state code as well as other address information. I need to populate a second state code field with the entry first selected without prompting the user twice. How can I set the value of the hidden field to the value of the select form field?

Let me explain further, on the first line of code I get the state value from the user. I then need to use this same state value for the TaxJurisdiction variable without prompting the user for thsi a second time.

<INPUT class="textbox" type="TEXT" maxLength=2 name="Applicants.State" size=30>

<INPUT type="hidden" name="Applicants.TaxJurisdiction" value="<Applicants.State/>">

Can someone please explain how to do this?
