More or less yes - I would go with the Javascript route because:

1. Javascript is built into IE
2. Security restrictions on the client side may prevent the ASP plugin
from being loaded
3. Javascript is "free" : )

Javascript will definately be easier to deploy.

The only advantage ASP would have is in database access - you can't
really do that with Javascript.

In anycase, give Javascript a go - if you're a decent programmer, it
won't take you long to learn javascript (maybe a couple days... or a
week).
