HTML Markup element ID difference in Pega7 and Pega8

We have upgraded our application from Pega 7.1.5 to 8.1 and noticed that input textbox html markup element ID has difference.In pega7 it was the property name and now 8.1 we are seeing a unique ID.Because of this change our reference to this element in javascripts(getelementbyID) are failing.Please let us know if it is an architectural change or can be fixed using an hotfix?

Hi,

This is an architectural change and is designed to make pega html markup w3c compliant.all controls(apart from non auto) will now have unique ID.Customers are advised to use data-test-id in their custom scripts
