c# - System.__ComObject is returned when I use getAttribute

Question

I am running this code:

HtmlElement.GetAttribute("onClick")

To try and get access to the onClick attribute of that element, but all this returns is System.__ComObject. I don't know why this happens, all other GetAttribute calls return the actual string.

Thanks.
