Invalid assignment error

I want to add a second value to a query string but keep getting this error message:
Error: invalid assignment left-hand side
Source Line: 2, Column: 52
Source Code: options[form1.city.options.selectedIndex].value&id=2','chooseBox')
This is the php code that creates the javascript which yields the error above
Code: Select all
<?php
echo ' <img src="img/big_cloud.png"
onclick="callAHAH(\'test11.php?city=\'+form1.city.
options[form1.city.options.selectedIndex].value&id=2\',\'chooseBox\')" height="75" width="75"
alt="Click here" title="Click for info" />';
?>

Looks like you left off a plus and opening quote after a variable to concatenate it to the string following:
form1.city.options[form1.city.options.selectedIndex].value&id=2
I think you may want to be:
form1.city.options[form1.city.options.selectedIndex].value+\'&id=2

Well, I did reply.. don't know where it went... Guess I'll resubmit it
Somehow, his post got duplicated, so I've merged the 2 topics. [Mod]
When you are concatenating the strings with the variables as your parameters to callAHAH, you rammed them together at the end, leaving out the + and opening quote:
form1.city.options[form1.city.options.selectedIndex].value&id=2
form1.city.options[form1.city.options.selectedIndex].value + \'&id=2
