The new <asp: substitution> control gives you a placeholder into which you can write dynamic content when using output caching. The Substitution control lets you create areas on the page that can be updated dynamically and then integrated into a cached page.

You can place a Substitution server control at the page location where content should be substituted, and set its MethodName property to the callback method.

<asp:Substitution ID="Substitution1" runat="server" />

    }
</script>
