usually .dll should be running client side not server side
jscript and javascript are two different beasts based on ecmascript;
you'll be wanting to get some JScript (microsofts own version) help for
this.. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/7sw4ddf8%28VS.85%29.aspx
but as somebody else mentioned, you won't get it working on all browsers
AFAIK.. so running DLL on server side and calling wrapper functions via
ajax is more appropriate.
an asp.net forum or suchlike will probably yield a more useful response
