How to control Page Caching features of ASPs
When a user requests an ASP page from your NT server, the default settings are used, and the ASP engine tells proxy servers not to cache the page. Ahhhh, caching. The one thing all server-side script-writers hate to death. Well, there is good news for ASP programmers!

An ASP script can tell proxy servers how long to cache itself. Below is an example of a script saying that it wants to be cached on the proxy server, so it speeds up the response for users connected to the proxy server.

<%
response.cachecontrol="public"
%>

There are more options and things that you can customized when it comes to ASPs and caching -- for more information on this, visit LearnASP.
