A System.Web.UI..::.AttributeCollection object that contains all attribute name and value pairs expressed on a server control tag within the Web page.
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.
