Hi,

Is there a way to control the IDs generated by the ASP.NET in the Controls ?
Its just that now it generates a very looong ID for each control..
Ok, I understand the ID must be unique but why can't I generate IDs such as 
ID1, ID2, ID3, ... with a much much shorter name ?
In fact the IDs only need to be unique (?), their name doesnt matter, or does 
it? I was thinking about 'postbacks' and perhaps it has something to do with 
it, no?
