not getting <input type=hidden> value thru $_GET

[helloise]

i have the following code:
<li>Have you read the <?php echo link_to('FAQ','util/faq') ?> ?
<select id="yesnolist" onChange="getChoice(this.value)">
<option value="yes" selected="selected">Yes</option>
<option value="no">No</option>
</select>
</li>

<input type="hidden" name="text" size=30 id="yesandno">
<?php
if ($_GET['yesandno'] == "no")
{
echo "anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!";
}
?>

then my java script for getCoice():
function getChoice(val)
{
yesNo = new Array("Yes", "No");
var getsel = document.contactus.yesnolist.value;
var e = document.getElementById("yesnolist");
var strUser = e.options[e.selectedIndex].value;

  document.contactus.yesandno.value = strUser; 
  alert(document.contactus.yesandno.value);
  return strUser;

}

my alert will gove yes or no depending on what i chose in the dropdown
but HOWCOME it does not go into the if ($_GET['yesandno'] == "no") ????

please help???

Because you have no form element named yesandno. You have one element with an id of "yesandno", but that is not the same thing. Also, there is no need to transfer the value from a select element to an input element. If the select element has a name and is part of the submitted form, then the value will allready be sent to the server.
