Can a page that ALWAYS redirects get a PostBack?

I've inherited an old Asp.Net website (I'开发者_开发问答ve had limited exposure to Asp & Web stuff).

One of the pages takes values from a query string, does some giggery pokery with them and then re-directs to another page.

The existing code has some Session State logic in there to remember the giggery pokery in case of PostBacks, but I'm wondering if it's necessary.

Can a page that always redirects be posted back?

Apologies if this is a dumb question

If it always redirects then no it cannot receive a postback, (from itself)

there are details of the page lifecycle here:

Sure, it could postback, but how is your setup? Without seeing, it's hard to give you any definitive answer.

Thanks.
