These two have very similar effect if mytextbox is an integral part of the
page, created in Studio an appearing in .spg
If mytextbox is not part of the ND Page, but added externally (for example,
by hard-coding <INPUT... > in the .htm file only getWebVar works.
Another situation I can think of where you need getWebVar is: within
CSpRepeated, the elementName changes to elementName(1) etc.
Theoretically speaking, getWebVar() looks at the nvps that were submitted
last. getDisplayFieldValue() looks at the Page object. Obviously, one of the
first things that ND does on a web event would be to take the nvps, match
them against known elements and put the values into the Page Object.
