Yes - the control id is generated by sharepoint, consisting of the Guid assigned to the web part (I think) and some other details. So it will change between environments, site collections and even pages that the control is deployed to. The best bet is to find another way to refer to your control in the jQuery, for example by class, or by using a selection pattern where you select a div containing the dropdown, then the next 'select'. e.g. var dropDownCtrl = jQuery("select.drpDownClassName") or var dropdownCtrl = jQuery("div.divsClassName > select") From: akhanna...@gmail.com Date: Wed, 3 Jul 2013 14:16:24 +1200 Subject: Dropdownlist and masterpage gibberish To: ozmoss@ozmoss.com
Hi Guys, I am creating a custom user control in MOSS 2007 to save some values to database. I am seeing the tags have changed because of masterpage..and affected Jquery code Dropdown id was ddlComponents, it changed to #ctl00_m_g_97d0d488_aa17_4761_a330_12496d50c779_ctl00_ddlComponents I have changed this and Jquery is working fine... When we deploy to Test environment, will this gibberish - ctl00_m_g_97d0d488_aa17_4761_a330_12496d50c779_ctl00_- change again...
