First of all: why would you use jquery for this simple request? Anyway... The variable xhr is not available in the second function, so it can't retrieve it's responseText. I don't have experience with jQuery AJAX, so I assume your syntax is written correctly (it seems like it is).

When using jQuery for ajax I write something like this

$.post(url,{params},function(data){
  $("#content").html(data);
});

Give it a try, see how you get on.
