Wow. I didn't know you all had kept talking about this. I used the
runat="server" option on my hidden text box and I'm good with getting
what I need. The biggest issue I ran into is say I posted to the
server, but ran into some issue that the user needs to correct (i.e.
invalid number, missing some other value on the form, etc). The data
in the listbox is gone. So I reload it using the hidden text box.
However, once I reload it, it's now on the server and not on the
client. So say the user adds a couple more numbers and tries to go to
the server again and say another issue happens. The attempt to reload
it that time causes duplicate numbers because some of them didn't go
away that time (because they are on the server now). So to get around
it, the moment I go to the server, I clear the listbox completely on
my own, and load it with my hidden text box.

But in essence, I got everything working so I'm good. Thanks!
