This is pretty weird. It is hard to understand how that could be 
happening. Try rewrite of code as:
var filter_value = document.getElementById("Text").value;

var c_filter = new OpenLayers.Filter.Logical({
type: OpenLayers.Filter.Logical.OR,
filters: [
new OpenLayers.Filter.Comparison({
     type: OpenLayers.Filter.Comparison.EQUAL_TO,
     matchCase:false,
     property: 'id',
     value:filter_value
     }),
new OpenLayers.Filter.Comparison({
     type: OpenLayers.Filter.Comparison.LIKE,
     matchCase:false,
     property: 'name',
     value: "*" + filter_value + "*"
     })
     ]
});

wfsProtocol.read({
     filter: c_filter,
     callback: processTheQuery,
     scope: strategy
          })

Unless this miraculously works, use firebug to debug into the writer in  
format\filter\v1.js
It beats me how this happens.
