Silverlight - serverside initialization

Silverlight

I am new to SilverLight and also web development. When the webserver application for the Silverlight app starts up I want to kick off some processes (server side) .. how do I do this .. there is no Main() or any other way I can see of doing this.

I have a feeling it is to do with the html tag on the startup page which currently point to a .XAP file. If I want to instantiate a class called Startup when the server app begins .. how do I do this. I hope this is clear. It is the equivalent of a console app :

void Main()
{
Startup s = new Startup()
}
