Client Validation in a custom control

[Larry Viezel]

I am creating a custom control that has a custom validator in it. I
want to do client side validation as well. This control is going to be
called on a page inside a repeater so there will be more than one
instance of this control on the page. Won't this cause a problem with
the javascript since the control will render the javascript more than
once on the page and therefore have several functions with the same
name? Is there a way around this?

I apologize for this rudimentary question - I really don't have a lot
of experience working with custom controls.
