Silverlight in php

Silverlight in PHP

My goal was to make a silverlight aplication work in a PHP page.

Silverlight content embedded into an PHP(HTML/aspx) web page is transferred to the client browser and is then displayed by the
Silverlight runtime (plugin) installed on the client computer.

The most important thing is that the web server environment can be Linux/Apache, Windows/Apache or Windows/IIS.

First i created a sample silverlight application.And i made the .xap file(SLPHPtest.xap).

Now copy this SLPHPtest.xap file to the same directory within your web site where you plan to host the Silverlight content.


Now Open and edit the page which will host the Silverlight control by adding the following code: You need to add the silverlight refernce here.
And the code to download the the plugin if plugin is not presnet

< id="SilverlightControlHost"> id="SilverlightControlHost">
< object type="application/x-silverlight-2" data="data:application/x-silverlight-2," width="500" height="300">
< param name="source" value="SLPHPtest.xap">
<t param name="minRuntimeVersion" value="2.0.31005.0">
< param name="autoUpgrade" value="true">
< a href="http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=124807" style="text-decoration: none;" >
< img src="http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=108181" alt="Get Microsoft Silverlight" style="border-style:none;" />
< /a>
< /object >
< /div >
< /div >


When you view the webpage(index.php) in a web browser the silverlight component can be viewed.Its as simple as that.
If you need to use multiple silverlight components just specify the corresponding .xap file and postion it as we need.
