Yes, you can have a pure html page show you content generated by a aspx page. It's a whacky idea, but it can be done. Using url reqriting, you can even disguise an aspx page as a html page.

Most web servers return information about this in the response headers. Have a look at the links for more information and code examples how to retrieve it:

Good luck!
