Default Referencing Html Controls

I need to set the InnerHtml of a HTML control but need to do it dynamically...

I have:

<p id="P1" runat="server" />

and I want to:

P1.InnerHtml = "This is some Text"

But I need to do it dynamically like...

Page.Controls("P1").InnerHtml = "..."
This of course does nto work...

Is there a way to do this?

right...I know I can do that - let me explain it this way...I want to be able to loop through all the HTML controls and reference them like

For t = 0 to 10
Control(t).InnerHtml = arrText(t)
Next

The problem is I don't think there is a way to refercne a <p> tag... You would have to do something like:

Dim c As Control
For Each c In parent.Controls
If c.GetType().ToString().Equals("System.Web.UI.HTMLC ontrols.<WHAT TYPE?>) Then
   c.InnerHTML = "Some Text"
end if

end c

There are ways to referecne generic controls such as <DIV> and <SPAN> etc. I guess you could poke around the HTMLControls class and see what you can find.
