Does Application_OnStart in global.asax work with cached pages?

Question

I'd like to implement a counter in global.asax so I can do a giveaway on my site every xxx visits. The question is, if my page is served from the ASP.NET cache, will the counter still update?

Thanks in advance

Application_OnStart this event fires only once when you application started. To implement counter you should use Session_Start event. In this event increment counter.
