A caching system and method are disclosed that allow for the caching of web pages that have dynamic content. The caching system and method utilize a cacheability analyzer that analyzes responses based on time, content, user identification, and macro hierarchy. The caching system only caches those responses having dynamic content that are deemed cacheable. The method for caching dynamic content includes identifying parts of a response to a request for dynamic content from a requestor and attributes associated with the parts. The attributes are examined to determine cacheability of the response. A cacheability is made based on the determination and the response may be cached based upon that cacheability determination.
