Control ID Name

I want to write some javascript attached to some event. When the event
fires, I want to pass the name of a ASP.Net Control to the javascript. I
happen to be working in a web page which has a master page. What I notice is
that when the page is rendered the ID's of all of the ASP.Net controls are
altered with what appears to be a prefix. How can I know the ID name so that
my javascript can do a "document.getElementById(controlIDName)"?

RE: Control ID Name

var ctl = document.getElmentById('<%= myControl.ClientID %>');

Well,

if you're writing javascript code directly in the aspx page you can use
something like this:
