Link not working

I have the below code in the xsl file
Link to config does not work.

<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" nonce="{$vNonce}">
       function ChangeMenu(servlet, type) {
      document.MainForm.disp.value = 1;
      document.MainForm.abaction.value = type;
      document.MainForm.action = servlet;
      document.MainForm.submit();
      }
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" nonce="{$vNonce}">
       document.addEventListener('DOMContentReady', function () {
            document.getElementById("config").addEventListener('click', ChangeMenu('Admin','config'), false);
            });
</script>
<a class="clsMenuNormal" href="#" id="config">Config</a>

Try this -

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" nonce="{$vNonce}">
function ChangeMenu(servlet, type) {
alert('success');
//document.MainForm.disp.value = 1;
//document.MainForm.abaction.value = type;
//document.MainForm.action = servlet;
//document.MainForm.submit();
}

function init() {
document.getElementById("config").addEventListener("click", ChangeMenu('Admin', 'config'));
}

window.addEventListener('load', init);

</script>

i do get a success alert box when the page loads. But after loading when the link is clicked the link does not work.
# is added to the url and nothing happens
http://localhost:8080/abc/servlet/Admin#

What is the Mainform property? I think you don't declare right the MainForm property.If you post the HTML code of the form I think that we can be more efficient to our answers.

MainForm is the form name. It has multiple links defined using xsl if else.
MainForm calls the menu.xsl <xsl:call-template name="menu"/> template which has the javascript for function ChangeMenu

<script type="text/javascript" nonce="{$vNonce}" >
       document.addEventListener('DOMContentReady', function () {
            window.document.getElementById("config").addEventListener('click', ChangeMenu('Admin','config'));
            });
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" nonce="{$vNonce}" >
       document.addEventListener('DOMContentReady', function () {
            document.getElementById('receipt').addEventListener('click', ChangeMenu('Admin','receipt'));
            });
</script>

<body bgcolor="#ffffff" topmargin="0" marginheight="0" leftmargin="0" marginwidth="0" rightmargin="0" bottommargin="0">

      </body></html>

<xsl:template name="main">
