Remarks
Use this property to programmatically access the attributes of the HTML server control. All HTML server controls store their attributes in the Control.ViewState property.
HTML attributes are treated by the .NET Framework as properties on the HTML server control to which they belong.
For additional information on the attributes collection, see the System.Web.UI.AttributeCollection class.
