I have a page that has a textbox with a image next to it. When the image is clicked it pops up a calendar that fills in the date in the textbox. This works fine when I open the page initially but when I open the same page with a querystring from another page it doesn't recognize the ClientID for the textbox control anymore. Anybody ever have this problem?

In webforms the ID of a textbox is often changed. Do a view source from your browser (or hit f12 to bring up the developers tools and look a script) to find out what it's id actually is.
Often it is something like form1_control_txtMyTextbox
In .net4 webforms does support not renaming the id and leaves the client side instance the same as the server side..

use this syntax if you are using a framework < 4.0:
var x = getElementById("<%= rblSearchType.clientid %>")
var x = getElementById("<%= rblSearchType.clientid %>")
