Get javascript timer status?

[juanchoc]

Hello!
Well, this is though one...
I have to display the progress of a javascript timer on a label on my vb.net program. Im really lost on this one.

Heres the javascript timer code:

function update_timer() {
			now = new Date();
			pause_time = ( stop_time - now.getTime() ) / 1000;
			if ( pause_time > 0 ) {
				timer_id = setTimeout( 'update_timer()', 1000 );
				document.getElementById( 'pause_countdown' ).innerHTML = Math.ceil( pause_time ).toFixed( 0 );
			} else {
				document.getElementById( 'pause_info' ).innerHTML = 'Process Complete';
			}
		}

		pause_time   = 20 * 1000;
		now          = new Date();
		stop_time    = now.getTime() + pause_time;

<span id="pause_info" style="font-size:12px;font-weight:bold;"><span id="pause_countdown">20</span> For Complete </span>

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
	<!--
		timer_id   = setTimeout( 'update_timer()', 1000 );
	// -->
	</script>

Well i dont know javascript, but it looks very similar to what vb.net is...

The problem is how i get the current value of the timer?

Thanks in advance,

I found that maybe using the ObjectForScripting property may do the job, but i dont really get how to use it.
Can someone help me?

Thanks in advance,
