Can I modify the <head/> section of a Page in .NET from a User Control without runat="server"?

Question

I have a page that does not have runat="server" set in the <head/> section. I do not have access to modify any of the code in the page.

This page contains a user control which I do have access to. Can I add a <meta/> tag to the head section of the page from the user control? It needs to be server-side so a javascript solution won't work.

Answer 1

One option is to create a Response Filter, and then modify the output before it's sent to the user.
