Explanation:
jQuery has provided its different wild card operators which we can use to search ASP.Net Server Controls whose ClientID changes when Master Pages are used. Also it will help users find ASP.Net Server controls from external JS files.
[id$=Button1] – (Ends With) Will match the suffix i.e. the ID must end with the search string
[id^=Button1] – (Starts With) Will match the prefix i.e. the ID must start with the search string
[id*=Button1] – (Contains) Will search for the match search string in the whole ID
