Can not display my own id in apex:inputField in the browser.

Hi everyone,

I am very new to apex and just start to study how to add validation on the field. I am not able to do this from set up. In more detail I want to assign an id to apex:inputfield. I read a lot of information in the internet such as using partial id like http://www.kineticgrowth.com/javascript-visualforce-jquery-partial-id-selectors/

However know matter what I add in apex page, it doesn't show up inside the string. Here is my code:

<apex:pageBlock id="pageBlock" ...>

...

<apex:dataTable ...  id="transTableBrandPurchase" ">

...

<apex:inputField id="eric_test" value="{!varBla}" required="true" />

when I check the browser in html it gets

<input id="j_id0:j_id6:pageBlock:transTableManufacturerPurchase:0:j_id273" maxlength="255" name="j_id0:j_id6:pageBlock:transTableManufacturerPurchase:0:j_id273" size="20" type="text">

Based on Salesforce reference I should get id="j_xxx:j_yyy ...:pageBlock:transTableManufacturerPurchase:eric_test"

People may say that I can just use "pageBlock:transTableManufacturerPurchase", I cann't because in this page we display then rows and the other rows look like similar:

<input id="j_id0:j_id6:pageBlock:transTableManufacturerPurchase:0:j_id275" name="j_id0:j_id6:pageBlock:transTableManufacturerPurchase:0:j_id275" >

Right now I am working on validation in visualforce page with Jquery.

Any suggestion?

Thanks very much!

Eric

    Hi Hargobind,

    Thanks for your point out that the difference between Text Field and InputField. It is very helpful!

    However I thought people still use it in InputFields, please search the tag "InputField" in these links.

    http://salesforce.stackexchange.com/questions/33754/how-to-get-ids-of-field-in-javascript-where-fields-are-displayed-through-apexr

    (

    <apex:inputField value="{!MyObject__c.MyField__c}" id="myInputField"/>

    )

    and 

    http://www.datixinc.com/define-default-value-lookup-field-salesforce-com/

    (

     <apex:inputField value="{!Quote__c.Order__c}" id="Order"/>

    )

    Eric
