You can't find the controltype as in ASP.NET in javascript I think. There is the attribute tagName that may help you:

control.tagName returns the HTML tagname. If you really want the ASP control name, you can try to put the controlname in for example the class attribute.

you can't get control type directly by javascript. you can try to use some serverside code to determine control class name:

var cType = '<%= Type.GetType(yourControlServerName).ToString() %>';
alert(cType);

LinkButton is a server side type of control, but in the client side (javascript) there is not a LinkButton but the HTML tags rendered by that control which probably include tags.

So, in the javascript it makes not sense to talk about LinkButtons.

Probably there is a better solution for what you are trying to acplish.
