ASP.NET Output Caching features help us to develop performance oriented web sites. No doubt that output caching reduces server side event processing. However, in the process it bypasses the entire server side processing. That means after the first request the page becomes static in terms of its contents for the entire cache duration. In some situations this architecture poses problems of its own. Recognizing these problems Microsoft introduced a new web server control called Substitution control in ASP.NET 2.0. The Substitution control allows you to dynamically change a part of the entire cached output. This substitution happens on the server and you can control what to substitute in the output.

ASP.NET version 2.0 includes a wide array of Web controls not found in previous versions. One such control is the TreeView, which is ideal for displaying hierarchical data. The TreeView control can be bound to a hierarchical data source such as the XmlDataSource or SiteMapDataSource, or can be constructed programmatically.

One common source of hierarchical data is the web server's file system. In many scenarios, there may be a folder that contains subfolders and files that the user needs to be able to browse. Using the classes in the System.IO namespace, we can programmatically populate the TreeView with the directory structure of our website. Then, when the user clicks a folder, the selected folder's files can be displayed.

In this article we will examine how to create a simple image gallery web page that's a breeze to maintain. The image gallery lacks the bells and whistles found in more complex and feature-rich image galleries, but this one is a cinch to deploy and maintain. We'll be using two Web controls: a TreeView to list the folders and subfolders in which the images reside; and a DataList control that lists each image in the selected folder..

This article will explain how a typical 3-tier architecture can be used in ASP.NET 2.0 with the help of Generics based collections and Data Source Controls.
