I’d like to write a Silverlight app that has 2 or more browser windows that ‘interact’.
An example would be a parent/details display where selecting an item in the ‘Parent’ list (in one browser window) will display the details of the item in another window.
The main point is so that on a multiple-monitor setup the user could have the main screen on one monitor and ‘tool’ windows on the other. Like how I use VS.
Is this possible? Any links/sample code etc?
Thanks!
You should be able to accomplish this by using the javascript bridge support in Silverlight. With this method you could use javascript to spawn a new window with the url of the child window. At that point you could continue to use javascript to communicate between the two windows. Something like this: http://codepunk.hardwar.org.uk/bjs12.htm
