I want to send to parameters to a different page but can't get it to work


page 1 - JS


code:
<script type="text/javascript">

   function showUser(str) 
{ 
if (str=="") 
  { 
  document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML=""; 
  return; 
  }  
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) 
  {// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari 
  xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest(); 
  } 
else 
  {// code for IE6, IE5 
  xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); 
  } 
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function() 
  { 
  if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200) 
    {var x=document.getElementById("co").value; 
    document.getElementById("txtHint").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText; 
	
    } 
  } 
 
xmlhttp.open("GET","page2.php?q="+str+"&i="+x,true); 
xmlhttp.send(); 
} 

 </script>




page 1 - html - php




<form action='' name='InsertOrder'  method='post' >

Select Company:
<select name='CoDropDown[]' id='co'><?php
for ($i=0; $i < sizeof($Location['LocName']); $i++)
{
  echo "<option value='".$Location['SplitId'][$i]."'> ".$Location['LocName'][$i]."</option>";
 }?>
</select>


Equipment Type:
<select name='EquipTypeDropDown[]' id='equi' onchange="showUser(this.value)" ><?php
for ($i=0; $i < sizeof($EquipType['Equip']); $i++)
{
  echo "<option value='".$EquipType['Id'][$i]."'> ".$EquipType['Equip'][$i]."</option>";
 }?>
</select>
<span id='txtHint'>************&nbsp; &nbsp;</span><br><br>



page 2 


<?php

$ProdId=$_GET["q"];

$Id=$_GET["i"];
echo $ProdId."*----*".$Id;
 echo $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']; 

?>


[Edit TP: added code tags]
I've been playing with it for hours but cant get it to work. Can anyone tell me why. It seems like the get element by id is not working inside the function. but it does outside of it. What am I doing wrong?

Found the mistake. Var x has to be outside any if / else staments (inside the js function). I can't believe it took me a day to find the error. I hope it helps someone.
