I fill in the inputs of my modal, as follows:
<input type="text" id="txtDescricao" name="txtDescricao" minlenght="4" required>
Script:
modal.find('.modal-body input[name="txtDescricao"]').val(descricao)
And when I have a label, like:
<label for="teste"></label>
How do I pass the value of the description variable to it?
Just pass the delimiter in case the id of your input:
var novoLabel = $('#textoDescricao').val();
$("#teste").text(novoLabel);
So you would not use this "modal.find", just look for the element's delimiter and pass it via jQuery.
In your case, because it is a label you must use .text() because it takes the text of your label and modifies it by the new value, if it was a input you should use .val()
Follow a jsFiddle with the example: link
Try this:
$('.modal-body label').text(descricao)
