 var allInps = document.getElementsByTagName('input'), allCb = [];
   
 for( var i in allInps )
  if( allInps[ i ].type === 'checkbox' )
  {
   allCb.push( allInps[ i ] );   
   allInps[ i ].onclick = likeMe;

  for( var i in allCb )
   if( allCb[ i ] !== this && allCb[ i ].value === this.value )
    allCb[ i ].checked = this.checked;  
 }  
   
})();

I think there is a problem inside likeMe function. I think you are expecting to refer the clicked element using 'this', but it won't..! 'this' inside the function will refer to the DOM itself.
Put a parameter to function likeMe:

function likeMe(e)

Then replace 'this' with 'e.currentTarget'

You'd be better off posting this to the js forum. Why is it PHP?

<script type='text/javascript'>
(function()
{
var allInps = document.getElementsByTagName('input'), allCb = [];


for( var i in allInps )
if( allInps[ i ].type === 'checkbox' )
{
allCb.push( allInps[ i ] );
allInps[ i ].onclick = likeMe;
}


function likeMe()
{
for(var i in allCb )
if( allCb[ i ] !== this && allCb[ i ].id === this.id )
allCb[ i ].checked = this.checked;
else if (allCb[ i ].checked !== this.checked && allCb[ i ].id !== this.id )
{
allCb[ i ].setAttribute('disabled',true);
}
else {
allCb[ i ].removeAttribute('disabled');
}
}


})();
