In the <script> you have two javascript functions - createRowURL and createRenderURL which make use of the Alloy UI scripts as follows:

function createRowURL( row ) {
   var portletURL = new Liferay.PortletURL(); // this is the line using AUI
   portletURL.setParameter("rowNumber", row );

   return portletURL.toString();
}

function createRenderURL(str) {

    alert("");

    var renderURL = Liferay.PortletURL.createRenderURL(); // this is the line using AUI
    alert("hi");
    renderURL .setParameter("jspPage",str);
    renderURL .setPortletId("eMenuAdvertise_WAR_eMenuAdvertiseportlet");
    // i.e. your-unique-portlet-id can be like "helloworld_WAR_helloworldportlet"
}

So I would suggest instead of using the <script> ... </script> tag use <aui:script> ... </aui:script> tags (this loads all the AUI and Liferay modules), for using this tag you would need to define the taglib in your jsp like:

<%@ taglib uri="http://alloy.liferay.com/tld/aui" prefix="aui" %>`

Edit (after seeing the theme templates):

I can see that in your portal_normal.vm you have removed the following lines from <head> and <body> tags respectively:

$theme.include($top_head_include) <!-- this statement is removed from <head> -->
$theme.include($body_top_include) <!-- this statement is removed from <body> -->

Please include these statements back in the theme templates and your scripts would work. The statement $theme.include($top_head_include) this is responsible to include all the AUI related stuff (javascripts, functions etc) and also some variables in the request attribute.

Note: Please always be careful while removing anything from themes and hooks. You should always know what is the purpose of the statements you are removing or modifying.

Hope this helps.
