While playing with SilverLight 2 beta 1 I noticed that there is not a combobox or dropdownlistbox provided in the toolbox. I have created a simple User Control to solve that issue. This user control is designed to work by setting a ItemSource property to a list of objects. I have very little experience with SilverLight and this is my first attempt at a user control in SilverLight Please feel free to let me know of any short comings in my code or implementation of this control.... |

Many ASP.NET developers around the world are wondering how and where they should incorporate SilverlightTM into their applications. The answer isn't obvious because there is a wide range of approaches you can take. You can make your entire page a Silverlight control and do everything there or, the more likely approach, you can identify portions of your pages that would benefit from Silverlight and integrate rich UI elements where they add the most benefit, leaving the underlying application stru... |

Children learn through creative playing. From LEGO to GI Joe and Barbie (they were my sister's, I swear), children tend to pick up toys and intuitively do something with them; they don't pick up the manual and read it, at least not for the purpose of understanding the toy! It's human nature to experiment and play with things to understand them, especially as a child when the "right way to do things" isn't burned into your brain. Such a hands-on approach is arguably one of the best ways to learn.... |

Silverlight's support of Dynamic Languages is really cool, but, as there is no template in Visual Studio or Expression Blend that supports them it might be a little difficult for you to get up and running quickly. So, I wanted to put together this blog posting to show you how you can use them within Visual Studio in a common (or garden) Web site project. It's a pretty lengthy tutorial for a Hello World applicaiton, but I'm assuming that you are as unfamiliar with Dynamic Languages as I was when ... |

This paper is intended to provide a methodology for customers to measure the level of Silverlight adoption amongst their customer base. Silverlight does not write to the HTTP_USER_AGENT string, so server logs will not contain any direct data for Silverlight installations. However, a very straightforward process may be used on web pages on the customer site to determine Silverlight penetration. This paper discusses two of these methods.... |

When I'm working on the computer and my toddler is around, she usually wants to "type" - which consists mostly of hitting all the keys to see the letters appear on the screen. A maximized Notepad window works pretty well for this purpose, though the occasional modal dialog (ex: open file, change font) gets in the way and requires parental assistance. I've tried using Paint to let her "draw" and develop basic mouse skills, but the Paint user interface is not great for young children. Paint's inpu... |

This walkthrough shows how to use the ASP.NET Xaml server control with code written in a dynamic language that runs in the browser. Dynamic languages are well suited to this kind of programming. They make it easy for you to provide a rich internet application (RIA) experience in your Web site. You can use dynamic languages in the following ways:
* Respond to events that occur in the XAML page.
* Alter the XAML to give the user a dynamic visual experience.
* Debug the code th... |

The Xaml server control enables you to provide a rich interactive application (RIA) experience with your Web application, beyond what can be done with AJAX and DHTML alone.
The Xaml control is a generic control that enables you to add Silverlight functionality into your ASP.NET Web application. You set the XamlUrl property, and the runtime provides the basic JavaScript Sys.Preview.UI.Xaml.Control type in the client. This means that the control is very generic and not tied to media-style scena... |

The Media control enables you to quickly and easily add media (movie or audio) to your ASP.NET Web application without worrying about XAML or about code to manage the media files. To use the Media control, you just reference a media source file (for example, a .wmv, .wma, or .mp3 file) and select a built-in skin. The following example shows the markup for a Media control.
The Media control defines an ASP.NET AJAX Extensions-style client type to provide a JavaScript programming model with the ... |

In a previous post, I wrote about some samples of calling various types of services from Silverlight 2. In the code, I was using constructors in my ASMX and WCF services with specifying a binding type and endpoint address.
It was called out to me that in other demonstrations, people did not use this construct. While the method I demonstrated works (explicitly specifying the binding and endpoint), in some cases it may not be necessary. One such case would be if you only have one endpoint an... |
