Reference ASP.NET control by ID in JavaScript?

Question

When ASP.NET controls are rendered their ids sometimes change, like if they are in a naming container. Button1 may actually have an id of ctl00_ContentMai

Answer 1

For 'ctl00_ContentMain_Button1' - In asp.net when page renders in the browser, first part remains same 'ctl00'. Second part is ID of ContentPlaceHolder used 'ContentMain'. Third is ID of a control 'Button1'
