Access VB.Net Controls from Javascript

[fripper]

I have a VB .Net application for which I would like to write a JavaScript
program to handle a countdown counter. My question is can I access the text
property of a textbox that I created in design mode with VB .Net from the
JavaScript program? This is to say I want the JavaScript program to pick up
the value in the textbox reduce it by one and put the new value back into
the text box.

Thanks.

Are you talking about a Webform application, by default we expect here it
is windowforms when that is not written. But I am very in doubt with your
message?

hi fripper,

You can refer to the textbox by it's ID, as it is rendered as a html control.
For IE, you can just refer to the element directly, but for netscape etc, you
have to go through the Document.All collection , eg Document.All['foo']
