I would rather do it like this.

<script language="javascript">function BtnSubmitValidation()
{

var txtsercurity = document.getElementById("txtLpId").value;
var cmbOwner = document.getElementById("cboGpOwner").value;

if(txtsercurity = "" && cmbOwner="0")
{
alert("Please enter Security # or select owner!")return false;

}

window.location.href="confirm.asp";
}
</script>
<body>
<table border="1" bgcolor="#b4beda" style="MARGIN-LEFT: 0px; WIDTH: 335px">
<td class="style1"><strong>Enter Security #</strong></td>

<td><input id="txtLpId" NAME="txtLpId" MAXLENGTH="5" TABINDEX ="1" style="WIDTH: 90px; HEIGHT: 20px; TEXT-ALIGN: left">
</td>
</td>
</tr><tr>
<td ><strong>or Owner</strong></td>

<td>
<SELECT id=cboGpOwner style="WIDTH: 96px" name=cboGpOwner">
<OPTION value=0 selected> </OPTION>

<OPTION value=1>AI</OPTION>
<OPTION value=2>PAL</OPTION>
<OPTION value=3>OTHER</OPTION>
<OPTION value=4>UNKNOWN</OPTION></SELECT></td>
<tr>
<td align="middle"><input style="FONT-WEIGHT: bolder; WIDTH: 78px; COLOR: white; HEIGHT: 24px; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #7e7ec9" type="submit" value="Submit" name="btncboSubmit" id ="btncboSubmit" onmouseover ="this.style.backgroundColor = '#be6572'" onmouseout="this.style.backgroundColor = '#7e7ec9' "onclick="return BtnSubmitValidation();"><input style="FONT-WEIGHT: bolder; WIDTH: 73px; COLOR: white; HEIGHT: 24px; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #7e7ec9" type="submit" value="Clear" name="btnClear" id ="btnClear" onmouseover="this.style.backgroundColor = '#be6572'" onmouseout="this.style.backgroundColor = '#7e7ec9'" size=12></td>
<td align="middle">
<input id="Text1" NAME="txtClicked" MAXLENGTH="6" style="WIDTH: 0px; COLOR: #000000; HEIGHT: 0px; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #c9c9c9; TEXT-ALIGN: left" readonly></td></tr></td>
