Hi In tapestry t:id is the unique id of a component within a container component which can be used to refer to the component in the java class. The components that needs to use client id(javascript id) implements ClientElement interface which has a single method getClientId() that returns the client id. The components that allow you to set the client id usually have a parameter 'clientid' except for zone in which case there is an id parameter. You can check the component reference for Tapestry version < 5.3 and javadoc for Tapestry version >= 5.3 to see if a component provides such a parameter.
The t:id(component id) and client id(javascript id) can be the same if there is only one component with a particular t:id on the page.
