Getting id of component in Block

["Faneyte, Diego" <di...@wur.nl>]

Hello,

I am having trouble getting the id of a component that is placed in a Block component.

The setup is like this: There is a page with a Block that contains a TextField.
Withing a form (with submit button) there is a foreach loop that contains a RenderBlock. A number of blocks are inserted into the page.

Now when the submit button is pressed I want to access the values of the textfields but i don't have the id's of the TextFields that where inserted by the RenderBlock.

if i look at the generated HTML in my browser is see the textfield from the block are named $TextField, $TextField$0, $TextField$1. But how do i access the values from my code? 

regards,
Diego

Perhaps you should be binding your text fields to values that you have 
implicit access to after the submit.

I created a large page of tons of @Block's that get rendered through a 
@Foreach just as you described and bind directly into objects with no 
problems.  In other words, you should not need direct access to the 
components by id.
