Please help in correcting the below code..

It doesn't work like that. Server-side script runs before client-side.

Dubious question:
ASP is not a language, so does not implicitly mean VBscript.
Javascript does not implicitly mean clientside script.
Yes,
you can call a serverside ASP function,
written in either vbs or js,
by serverside js.
No,
you cannot call a serverside function in a clientside script,
or use a clientside variable in a serverside function.
=================
> var uid = document.chk.userid.value;
> var found = "<%=getUserName(" + uid + ")%>"
Yes, you can do this clientside javascript:
var found = '<%=getUserName("12")%>';
Buy no, not this:
var uid = '12';
var found = '<%=getUserName(" + uid + ")%>';

However, you could use remote scripting as I have done here:
http://kiddanger.com/lab/ee/q_21539292.asp
It makes and HTTPRequest to an ASP page to get information from a database
and return the results.

But, Roland, that only confuses the level of the OQ,
and has nothing to do with the script above, provided by the OP.

What, exactly, is the desired effect here? I click on any of the choices,
and nothing happens. At least, nothing I can see.

You must be using Firefox. Try this instead:

Yes, I was using FF. I went back and used IE, and saw the desired effect.
Perhaps the poster should have said something about his code only working in
IE.
Just started looking at the code, and it's pretty neat. Even though it may
or may not have been an answer to the OP, I'm finding it educational. Thanks
for sharing.
I still don't get how it works even when I have it running from my hard
drive, but I will analyze it some more and try to figure it out.

The OP wanted to call for ASP variables from client-side and that's not
possible. However, using remote scripting you can effectively post to an
ASP page, return the result and grab that from the client-side script, which
is what I'm showing how to do. The ASP page posts and returns a result but
the user never sees that happen nor do they see the page refresh because it
is the ASP page that does the work.
It allows the user to grab an ASP variable value and use it in their current
script without refreshing or posting directly from that page.
