exclamation point in field name

I'm using a third-party chat application. They require that form field
names be formatted "SESSIONVAR!FIE LDNAME". The bang is creating
headaches when I try to write validation script. How can I handle this
format properly? I'm not sure how to escape the exclamation point
within my code.

TIA for your time and expertise.

Hint:
if(isNaN(docume nt.forms["formName"].elements["element name!"].value))
{
alert("Get with the programme!");
}
