Remarks

The RenderAttributes method resolves the URL set in the Src property, writes the onclick attribute of the rendered HtmlInputImage control if the CausesValidation property is true, and finally calls the base RenderAttributes method. If the value of the Src property is a malformed URL, an HttpException exception is thrown.

The RenderAttributes method is used primarily by control developers extending the functionality of the HtmlInputImage control.
