dotNet uses a new attribute called runat="server" for any element that
you want to have available server side "while the page is executing".
e.g. <input type="text" id="FirstName" runat="server" />
Then in your dotNet code you can reference the element as an object:
e.g. FirstName.Value = "Anthony Baratta";
A form element is just another element -> object, but you can only have
ONE server side form control.
