    .NET Controls and IDs

    I get horribly long random IDs created when umbraco renders the .NET control - how can I change this?

    I am using CSS based on ID and so the control isnt rendering properly...

    The workaround I guess is to use CSS classes instead?

    Yes use css classes or add your css on the page and so you use <%= mycontrolid.ClientID %>

    Can you please explain the <%= mycontrolid.ClientID %> option?

    This is standard .NET.

    There is an internal .NET reference for each control (the auto-generated one) and there is a 'clientID' which is the one in the DOM, hence this is the one to used when referencing via Javascript or CSS.
