You could create what you need in the Javascript onmouseover function -

then, add an attribute to the textbox, using that function when the page loads.
Check out the different ways to do it here (from the Tips & Tricks section of ASPNEt101.com):

Dear Friend,

Not sure about your needs but I think you are looking for onfocus. Onfocus will be fired when the user focuses on the TextBox. This means when the user clicks inside the TextBox the onfocus will be fired. Let me know if you need further assistance.

Like this my brotha:

    Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

      txtBoxControl.Attributes.Add(" onMouseOver", "JavaScriptMethod();")

    End Sub

 On your Page Load Event just add the attribute to the text box control
