Passing control's ID to javascript via ScriptControlDescriptor
- by markiz
I create a control in CreateChildControls():
HtmlGenericControl mycontrol= HtmlGenericControl("li");
mycontrol.ID = "controlID";
controlId = mycontrol.ID;
protected virtual IEnumerable<ScriptDescriptor> GetScriptDescriptors()
{
        ScriptControlDescriptor descriptor = new ScriptControlDescriptor("Project.TEditor", this.ClientID);                   
        descriptor.AddProperty("controlId", controlId);           
        return new ScriptDescriptor[] { descriptor };          
}
Then in javascript i try to find this control using the ID property:
 alert($get(this.get_controlId()));
I get null because the actual control ID has a prefix that was added by asp.
How to solve that?
