Fundamentally speaking this wont work with one click. Reason being, you need to pass the parent record ID# to your code page, so the script knows which parent to tie the children together.

You'll have to save, and then one more click to run the .js page to make the child records.

Just the nature of the beast.

You can easily create a formula lookup field which corresponds to the record ID # of the parent record. This would allow it to automatically look it up for you.
