If you are after a robust and pure JS solution, something like this should do the trick, but it depends on what your end game is:

var anchor      = document.createElement("a");
var anchorText  = document.createTextNode("add to wishlist");
anchor.appendChild(anchorText);
anchor.href     = "#";
anchor.id       = "addLink";

document.write(anchor);

window.onload = function() {
    var name = "addtowish";
    var value = 99;
    document.getElementById("addLink").onclick = function(e) {
        createCookie(name, value, 15);    
        e.preventDefault();
        return false;
    };
};

You should pass createCookie() function as string

document.write(
    "<a href='#' onclick=\"createCookie('"+ name +"','" + value +"', '15')\">" +
        "add to wishlist" +
    "</a>"
);
