How to decide TabId and ModuleId in Globals.NavigateURL in DotnetNuke?

Question

I am damn confuse in TabId and ModuleId which need to pass as parameters in Globals.NavigateURL.

I have created a project with 2 UserControl. Now I want to navigate in button click event of first UserControl.

I have reviewed some reference. Most of them suggest to pass TabId, Key and ModuleId. I know Key but I don't know what is TabId and ModuleId and how to get it in my .cs file of usercontrol.

Can anybody please suggest me?

In answering your other question, I told you that the following two lines of code are equivalent:

string miUrl = base.EditUrl("ModuleInfo");
string miUrl = DotNetNuke.Common.Globals.NavigateURL(base.TabId, "ModuleInfo", String.Format("mid={0}", base.ModuleId));

If you inherit from PortalModuleBase, you have access to TabId and ModuleId in the base class. If you only need to navigate to a module control (view) in the same module, base.EditUrl() works fine. You need to use NavigateUrl() if you need to navigate to another module or to another page (tab).
