VB Script question on ASP page

Hi,
I'm creating several VBScript functions on my ASP page to be run on the client side. Currently I'm running a line of code:

document.form1.compTotal.value = 200

(compTotal is my textbox where I want to put some value in)
(form1 is the name of the form where my textboxes are located)

inside my VBscript bracket. However everytime I load my page this line doesn't seemed to get executed at all (textbox remains empty)

Does anyone have input and suggestions what should I look into to solve this problem? Thank you in advance for help.

1. Post this question in the ASP forum
2. Make sure you're not mixing client and server side coding
3. Make sure you're writing your VB Script to the client where it will get executed
