<SCRIPT ID="script" FOR="submit_button<%=uniqueCount%>" EVENT="onclick()">
javascript: return chkSel('<%=leg1%>','<%=leg2%>','<%=leg3%>','<%=uniqueCount%>');
</SCRIPT>

is there any way of running this code (by changing it?) on all browsers? It only works on IE, MX and DN.

Seems like you're using an HTML editor of some type. Make sure your editor is supports the browsers you wish to target.

Calling a function and passing a value to that function via onclick is very simple.

This code will run in any javascript capable browser.
<html><head><title>Click Me</title></head><body>
<button onclick="count += 1; myFunction(count);">Click This Button</button>
<script type="text/javascript">
var count = 0;
function myFunction(i){
var plural;
if (i != 1) plural = "s.";
else plural = ".";
alert("You've clicked the button " + i + " time" + plural);
}
</script>
</body></html>
Notice that the onclick attribute can contain multiple commands. Think of it as if the contents of the onclick attribute will be called via eval.

Note: the onclick attribute can be used for input elements as well
<input type="button" value="Click Me" onclick="count += 1; myFunction(count);">
The above code could replace the button element in the first code example and produce the same results.
