How check text value of ASP.NET label using Javascript

[Cirene]

I have an asp.net label on my webform. (The webform is based on a master
page.)

Using javascript how do I check the text value of the ASP.NET label? The
label is called lblCar.

Thanks!

This seems to work...

if
(document.getElementById("ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_lblUserRole").innerText
== "999")

 

[Cirene]

Wow! Thanks!

if
(document.getElementById("ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder1_lblUserRole").innerText
== "999")

Avoid hard-coding client-side element names, as they are not set in
stone...

Use this instead:
document.getElementById('<%=lblCar.ClientID%>').innerText

In this case what is "ClientID" used for? Thanks...

Right, it's the ID that is put in the generated HTML code.
