How to itereate through repeater control itemtemplate data using Javascript?
Using asp.net 2 (VB).
I have two controls in place.
1. An ASP.NET repeater conrol with a string (image path) as part of the Item Template (first element of each row).
2. A client side javascript image carousel control which requires that string for population. The client side caradd function is already written.
This seems like a simple thing but.... I'd like to either:
1. Call the carradd javascript upon every itemTemplate itemcreated
2. Iterate through the completed repeater control, extract the needed string and feed it to the client side function.
I understand that this should probably be done with AJAX but I'm not quite ready to tackle that this week so....
Thank you.

The extender which McExp references will get me past my immediate hurdle.
Ultimately, I plan to use Bill Scott's carousel (http://billwscott.com/carousel/ ) which does some really cool things over and beyond the extender. He also provides an AJAX data source example using PHP (which I want to get involved with right now even less than AJAX).
Thanks to Zvonko for his input. I'm not sure that his immediate concern is correct (though it certainly may!) but his question made me re-examine my initial beliefs -- kludging an interface might not be as easy as I first thought.
