var btnUpload = document.getElementById('buttonId');
doSubmit(btnUpload);

Put that in your if-block. Make sure the button has an ID.

Without knowing more What about this?

function confirmUpload(btnUpload) {
    if (confirm("Are you sure want to upload '" + document.getElementById("txtWS").value + "' ?") == true) {
        doSubmit(btnUpload);
    }
    else
        return false;

confirmUpload is probably a handler for the submit event, so you cant pass it the button.

function confirmUpload() {
    if (confirm("Are you sure want to upload '" + document.getElementById("txtWS").value + "' ?") == true) {
        var btnUpload = document.getElementById('<%= btnUpload.ClientID %>');
        doSubmit(btnUpload);
    }
}

Change the method prototype as

function confirmUpload(obj) {
//Do some thing
}

Where obj the the button you are clicking on

Call this method as

**onclick="javaScript:confirmUpload(this)"**

Now in that if part call another method like

if (confirm("Are you sure want to upload '" + document.getElementById("txtWS").value
    +     "' ?") == true) {
    doSubmit(obj);
}
