Given what pops up in those DEBUG lines, you probably shouldn't be searching for anything so simple as a match for your transaction ID (that sequence of numbers could, it appears, pop up in those long strings of digits in those lines).

I still don't see why your code isn't producing matches. Since you don't appear to be using strict, all your variables are global, so it shouldn't be a scoping issue. Perhaps if you posted (in this thread) the part of the code that fetches the transaction IDs, we might see what's going on.
