I'm using VS 2008, I have a very simple page that has a bunch of uniquely named controls. When I try to view it in design mode I get the following error:
Error Rendering Control - Label12
An unhanded exception has occurred.
Multiple controls with the same ID 'Label1' were found. FindControl requires that controls have unique IDs
I've checked the HTML and the designer file and I can only see one control called Label1. What might be causing this?
Also, here is the aspx markup I'm having trouble with?
