<label for="sd">StartDate:</label>
    <asp:TextBox ID="StartDate" runat="server"></asp:TextBox>

The Controls collection cannot be modified because the control contains code blocks (i.e. <% ... %>). 

Answer 1

the reason i was getting the error:

“Microsoft JScript runtime error: Object doesn’t support this property or method”

because i was having conflict .js reference and there were two different set of .js on the page

hope this helps other.
