Calling jQuery from ASP.NET GridView

I found the following code in one of the old messages in StackOverflow:

$("#<%=GridView1.ClientID%> tr").click(function(){
    alert("Row clicked");
});

The code above is supposed to call an alert when user clicks in a row of a GridView. What I don't understand, is how to define (in my GridView) what is referred in the above code as "ClientID". What is "ClientID"?

This code <%=GridView1.ClientID%> will be run on server and will be final render as the ID of the grid view, so on the page you will final see probably this

$("#GridView1 tr").click(function(){
    alert("Row clicked");
});

The ClientID gives the final ID that the GridView is use on the html page.
