Try:
<input type="text" name="q" id="q"></input>
<input type="button"
onclick="drawImg('A',document.getElementById('q').value);"
value="Search"></input>

I didn't test this, but I think it'll work...

Subject: [PHP] php / JS / DOM question

I know that this is more of a Javascript / DOM question but I cannot
for the life of me figure this out:

I have this form:

<form name="query_form">
<input type="text" name="q"></input>
<input type="button" onclick="drawImg('A',document.forms
['query_form'].elements['q']);" value="Search"></input>
</form>

When the user clicks on the button, I want the text that is in input
elment 'q' to be sent to the Javascript function drawImg but when I
debug it via alerts, it appears to be NULL. Looking at the examples
online, I feel like this should work. Does anybody know why this
might not be working correctly?
