The VaryByParam attribute causes a new instance of a page to be cached when a different parameter is passed to the page.

You can assign two special values to the VaryByParam attribute:
none: causes any query string or form parameters to be ignored.
*: caches a new cached version whenever there is a change in query string or form parameter passed to the page.
You can assign a semicolon-delimited list of parameters to the VaryByParam attribute.
