How to update a materials' shader properties using JavaScript

Question

I'm wanting to dynamicaly update the following properties (_Blend, _MainTex & _Texture2), as a gameObject rotates around the y axis. I'm new to Unity and wondering if its even possible from javascript?

Shader "Blend 2 Textures" { Properties { _Blend ("Blend", Range (0, 1) ) = 0.5 _MainTex ("Texture 1", 2D) = "" _Texture2 ("Texture 2", 2D) = "" }

SubShader { Pass { SetTexture[_MainTex] SetTexture[_Texture2] { ConstantColor (0,0,0, [_Blend]) Combine texture Lerp(constant) previous } } } }
