I'm trying to sort out some accessibility (WCAG 2) issues within our DNN project. At the moment I’ve got stuck on a really common one that is being caused by the way dotnetnuke generates pages. Basically, where you have to have a “for” tag in a label, the Id of the item that the label is tagged to is being changed by DNN. It seems to be turning the name into a global qualifier name, for example txtInactive becomes dnn_ctr566_ViewCmis_committeedetails_txtInactive.

Within the desktop module files, the original ID is maintained, so I presume the extended qualifier is generated when the module is loaded into DNN itself. 

I can’t use the long version in visual studio as it won’t be able to find the item with that id and therefore won’t build – if i use the long version it will just create a doubly long version, and the problem persists.

If anybody has any suggestions on where I would need to look to change the way this is done I would be very greatful!

Thanks

it's actually asp.net that changes the id's not dotnetnuke.(if you want further info on this search for asp.net naming containers e.g. http://aspadvice.com/blogs/joteke/archive/2007/02/25/Understanding-the-naming-container-hierarchy-of-ASP.NET-databound-controls.aspx). I'm assuming you're trying to access server controls via javascript? If so the easiest way is to typically generate the javascript server side, or else inline e.g.

txtEmail=document.getElementById('<%=txtEmail.ClientID%>');
