That's a great post Philip! Great example of using Silverlight for more than just UI work. Wilco Bauwer have more examples and ideas on this kind of stuff over at http://www.wilcob.com/Wilco/Silverlight/silverlight-interoperability.aspx.
You could do lots of cool stuff with Silverlight to enhance traditional web pages. Client side caching is another example where it could be usefull. One could abstract away Silverlight Isolated Storage, Google Gears and Flash 6 local storage in a simple JavaScript API and get local cache that would work on lots of machines depending on which plug-in is available. :) On Fri, Jun 27, 2008 at 7:08 AM, Philip Beadle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi All, > > I have updated Nikhil's Alpha 1.1 demo from last year to run in Beta 2. > Works a treat and shows off a bunch of cool SL features.
