Perhaps

  function val_cust_ByAddress_ClientValidate(sender, args, action)
  {
    // use the value of action
  }

  <input type="button" name="foo"
         onclick="val_cust_ByAddress_ClientValidate(..., ..., this.name)">

? If not, post the code the _client_ gets, i.e. the server generates.
Only relevant snippets of it, of course.
