Can asp.net 2.0 form in masterpage render ID other than "aspnetFor

[donjuan]

I'm porting an asp.net 1.1 app to asp.net 2.0 (july build) and I have a form
in a page that's using a master page. The form inside a content placeholder
looks like:

<asp:Content ContentPlaceHol derID=cphMain runat=server>
<form id=SomeForm runat=server>

on the client, the browser renders:

<form action=thisPage .aspx method=post id="aspnetForm" >

so all of my javascript that references "SomeForm.javas criptFct" blows up
because it's not "aspnetForm.jav ascriptFct".

Any ideas how to make the form render the correct form ID instead of
"aspnetForm " all the time when using a master page?

BTW, it works fine outside of masterpages.

Your javascript should dynamically incorporate the ID via ClientID.

As a side note, in general the <form> should be put in the master page, not
the ASPX page.
