Id of child controls for UserControl

Is there a consistent way to find out the id of child controls of the
UserControl.

Should I just use this.name+"_+co ntrol.Id;?

In the code behind of your user control, did you add your controls as public
properties? Or are you talking about something totally different?

You probably shouldn't just use that

What is it you are trying to do? No doubt a better solution exists...

I need to register some script block.
The idea of the control is to show Modal Dialog showModalDialog () and insert
some values in the hidden txtboxes of the UserControl. For this I need to
know id of the hidden boxes (i just use TextBox for that with
Attributes.Add( "style"."displa y: none")
names of text boxes are static. - I just add them in the designer - no
dinamic code for this.
Thanks,
Shimon.

I think you can do this by creating public properties in the user control.
Then you would be able to get the idea of a textbox in the user control like
this:

ControlName.Pub licPropertyName .ClientID

In the user control you create a public property of type Textbox.
