Access silverlight control name in Javascript

I have a text box in which i enter some random text. I have a java script function named FormatText(control-name,command). Inside this java script function i need to access the text box's text property so that the text can be formatted depending on the command that is passed( eg bold,italic,underline). Hence i needed to know whether there is any way to access a control's name through javascript

I don't think you can do it directly, but you can access JavaScript from within Silverlight, so you can do something like this:

using System.Web.Browser;

HtmlPage.Window.CreateInstance("myFunction", new string[] { textBox.Name });

This will invoke myFunction with the name of the TextBox as it's parameter.

So when you initialise the control you could call this to get the name into your JavaScript.
