UniqueID vs ClientID

[Sam Samnah]

Sorry if this seems like a simplestic question, but what is the difference
between "this.UniqueID" and "this.ClientID"? and when should either be used?

I am Sam I am.

this.UniqueID is the control's name appended with all naming containers,
think of it as the fully qualified control name. this.ClientID is the value
that will appear in the id attribute of the control, it is a translation of
the uniqueid to be a (well almost) html compliant id tag (leading
underscores are not really html compliant).
