This Wrox book, Silverlight 1.0, will introduce developers to the initial release of Microsoft’s Silverlight platform and assist them in the creation of Rich Interactive Applications (RIAs). In addition to introducing the capabilities of this platform, the authors show readers how to implement Silverlight using its component languages, tools and techniques.
The book shows developers exactly how to build everything from basic, static Silverlight-enabled HTML pages, to advanced, Silverlight-enhanced ASP.NET applications. Along with these various applications, this book will address security, data access using AJAX, and the latest tools for building Silverlight applications, including Visual Studio 2007, Expression Blend 2.0 and Expression Media Encoder.
