There are many examples of such scripts in the forum if you search, I'll post an example later.

// Your code here:
alert(activeDocument.activeLayer.name);
}
P.S. You will have to rework the original code to replace the code which affects all layers with the code for the selected layers.
Edit: And another option...
#target photoshop
if (app.documents.length > 0) {
var myDocument = app.activeDocument;
myDocument.suspendHistory("Undo script...", "main(myDocument)");
}
function main() {
var theLayers = getSelectedLayersIdx();
for (var p = 0; p < theLayers.length; p++) {
selectLayerByIndex(theLayers[p], false);
// Your code here
alert(activeDocument.activeLayer.name);
}
}
///// Functions /////
function selectLayerByIndex(index, add) {
add = undefined ? add = false : add
var ref = new ActionReference();
ref.putIndex(charIDToTypeID("Lyr "), index);
var desc = new ActionDescriptor();

desc.putBoolean(charIDToTypeID("MkVs"), false);

sir, if you see my message notification please provide similar code that works with CS6 in following post for answer. i will test your answer and accept soon.
