I want to access the windows certificate store through javascript... I want to develop a web application and wants to validate the login user against the certificate by reading it.

As far as I know it is not possible from a web application without using native bridge (fir instance through some java applet or activeX component).
There is currently a W3C working draft for a Web Cryptography API. Some browser vendors are currently working on this API (Mozilla or Microsoft) but it is far from being production ready.
