Hi, I have question about Expression Blend and Silverlight. Can someone
please shed me some light.

Blend 2 allows you to create the following project type

1.WPF Application.exe
2.WPF Control Library
3.Silverlight 1.0 site
4.Silverlight Application (.NET “Orcas”)

I need to deploy the project on the website therefore I selected Silverlight
1.0 site for the project type. However it appears that the Event options in
the Properties is not available.

The scenario is I like to deliver project that developed in Blend to the
website via Silverlight, I like to include a textbox, buttons in the project.
Something similar to this
http://www.microsoft.com/silverlight/sharethelove/Default.html

Can someone please tell me

•How can my Blend Silverlight project have Asset Library that includes
button, textbox, checkbox ... similar to the Asset Library when creating WPF
Application.exe

•Or how to have the WPF Application on the web.

Thank you,

Han Duong

Hi,

Silvelight 1 has supports a very limited number of contorls. Also it is not
backed by a CSharp code behind model so you can not add events like you do
for WPF projects. However it does expose events and supports javascript code
behind. The buttons, text boxes and other contorl you see in the samples are
all constructed using the shapes supported by javascript code handling
various events.

For examples you can look at http://blog.nibblestutorials.net/

fantastic news.

Just few hours ago, MIX08 released Expression Blend 2.5 March 2008. It seems
to answer questions and challenge (creating controls library) that I having.
When creating Silverlight project, the Assets Library has all controls like
when you creating the WPF application. Also, it has Events button in the
Properties tab.

Hmmm it a bit “hash” for the third parties who creating and selling controls.
