$get is jQuery syntax for fetching an element. It has nothing to do with C#.

It's not jQuery -- jQuery would be $.get(). I think this is some ASP support script.

A:
This is asp.net ajax shortcut:
$get Shortcut Method
Provides a shortcut to the getElementById method of the Sys.UI.DomElement class. This member is static and can be invoked without creating an instance of the class.
