For those who could not get the Silverlight 1.0 beta applications to run
One really great feature about silverlight is the packaging aspect of it. what do i mean by this? well, you can essentially put a ton of assets into a compressed file and pull them out as needed. this would provide you the ability to have a single asset package that is compressed, and thus saving on some download time. of course there would be tradeoffs that you’d have to consider, but for sample sake, let’s assume they are good. so how would you do that?
Silverlight implements isolated local storage on the client. Currently in the Alpha, the storage is limited to 1MB per web application and is keyed to the full URL of the XAML/HTML page. That means for this alpha release, two pages that are part of the same application served from the same domain will have separate isolated storage. In later beta releases, support will be added to allow configuration of isostorage quotas by users or corporate configuration profiles.
Just a great post
so what happens when you want to embed silverlight in your page? well if you have absolute control over your site, you may not need to worry as you’ll post your silverlight applications as-is. but what if you want to just output some smaller silverlight applications in specific areas in your site, blog, etc?
