You problem is here:
_onclick="javascript:details('%s')"%URL(r=request,f='retrieve',args=[document.getElementById(kvk_number).value,document.getElementById(subdossiernumber).value])))
because you have JS mixed with web2py code. Try this:
_onclick="javascript:details('%s/'+$('#kvk_number').val()+'/'+$
('#subdossiernumber').val())"%URL('retrieve')
