Answer 1

You can set a onclick function:

document.getElementById('attachmentName').onclick = function() {};

Answer 2

Assume that your function are previously define like this

function foo(){alert('function call');}

After adding innerHTML

In Javascript

document.getElementById('attachmentName').setAttribute('onclick','foo()');

In Jquery

$("#attachmentName").attr('onclick','foo()');
