You can make just about any HTML element a server controllable control instance:
On the server side, this will be:
protected System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl hr1;
or
Protected hr1 As System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl
Some "plain" html elements map to specific types in the System.Web.UI.HtmlControls namespace such as HtmlInputHidden (<input type="hidden">), HtmlTable (<table>) and so forth.
Once you have a server side instance of these controls you can do various things, but they are limited compared to the controls found in the System.Web.UI.WebControls namespace.
