Get clientid in user control from external javascript file

Question

I am developing a user control (ascx) in ASP.NET which uses javascript for manipulating controls. Currently the javascript code is inlined and uses <%= somecontrol.

Ok, a different approach, that I try to use a JavaScript-class style, and then initialize it for each control.

In the external javascript file, write your code as:

function oNameCls(ControlId1) {

    this.ControlId1 = ControlId1;

    this.DoYourWork1 = function() {
        // use the control id.
        // this.ControlId1
    }    
    this.DoYourWork2 = function() {
        // use the control id.
        // this.ControlId1
    }    

}

And on the control do the call like that.

Hope now help better.
