Are topological PID's Noetherian?

Let $R$ be a ``topological PID'': a topological ring which is an integral domain in which every principal ideal is closed and every closed ideal is principal.

Is $R$ ``topologically Noetherian'': there is no strictly increasing sequence of closed ideals?

If not, is there a locally compact counterexample?
