I have been using ext which is another javascript framework with .net. It is far easier to use than old fashioned HTML form controls

Than using ASP.net form controls. You probably want to use the cool javascript framework form validation as opposed to the not so great built in .net validators too, but I guess that's down to your preference

If you do want to carry on using .net controls, remember that the ID generated in markup is different to what you define, so if you want to reference a control by id in JS use:

<%=MyControlId.ClientID%>
