protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

    wwScriptVariables scriptVars = new wwScriptVariables();

    // *** Add any values static or dynamic

    scriptVars.Add("name", "West Wind Technologies");

    scriptVars.Add("entered", DateTime.Now);

    scriptVars.Add("counter",12.22M);

    // *** A cleaner way to get ClientIDs into client code?

    scriptVars.Add("txtNameId", txtName.ClientID);

    scriptVars.Add("btnSubmitId", btnSubmit.ClientID);

    // *** Add a control's value

    scriptVars.AddDynamicValue("txtName", this.txtName, "Text");

    // *** Done

}

The class then renders a JavaScript object into the page with each of the key values as property names. 

<script type="text/javascript">

//<![CDATA[

var serverVars = {

    "name": "West Wind Technologies",

    "entered": new Date(1202809550345),

    "counter": 12.22,

    "txtNameId": "txtName",

    "btnSubmitId": "btnSubmit",

    "txtName": ""

}

//]]>

</script>

Now from anywhere you can access these variables via the static object instance:

var name = serverVars.name;

var entered = serverVars.entered;

var counter = serverVars.counter;

var txtName = document.getElementById(serverVars.txtNameId);
