IAttributeAccessor Interface
Defines methods used by ASP.NET server controls to provide programmatic access to any attribute declared in the opening tag of a server control.

If you author a custom server control that inherits from the WebControl, HtmlControl, or ListItem class, the .NET Framework automatically provides programmatic access to attributes because each of these classes implement the IAttributeAccessor interface.
If you author a custom server control that does not inherit from one of these classes and plan to allow programmatic access to attributes that do not correspond with the control's strongly typed properties, be sure to implement the IAttributeAccessor interface.
' The following class creates a custom ASP.NET server control that implements ' the IAttributeAccessor interface. It creates a MyTextBox class that contains ' Width and Text properties that get and set their values from view state. ' Pages that use this control create an instance of this control and set the ' Width property using the IAttributeAccessor.SetAttribute method. ' The page then displays the values of the Text and Width properties ' using the IAttributeAccessor.GetAttribute method. ' When compiled, this assembly is named MyAttributeAccessor.
