Your form has no action attribute, so the GET will be directed to the current url, that is to say /search_form/1234/. If you want to direct it to another url, add an action attribute. For instance

 <form method="get" action="/search_form/">

This will yield the url /search_form/?search=7426 if 7426 is selected. You also need to modify the view:

def search_form(request, xid=None):
    # Same here

If you don’t want to hardcode /search_form/, you can add another named url in your patterns, like

url(r'^search_form/$', views.search_form, name='base_search_form')

And

<form method="get" action="{% url 'base_search_form' %}">

You must use javascript to update form’s url according to user’s selection.
