The following code works fine in WPF.

In Silverlight it gives me the error **Invalid attribute value {Binding ElementName=WhichNumber, Path=SelectedItem.Content} for property Text. **

How can I get this to work in Silverlight?

    <ComboBox x:Name="WhichNumber" Width="100" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="10" SelectedIndex="0">
        <ComboBoxItem Content="One"/>
        <ComboBoxItem Content="Two"/>
        <ComboBoxItem Content="Three"/>
    </ComboBox>

    <TextBlock Text="{Binding ElementName=WhichNumber, Path=SelectedItem.Content}"/>

    Silverlight doesn’t support Relative Binding (binding the attribute of one element to the value of another element’s attribute value) while WPF has full support for that kind of binding.
