asp:Silverlight Override for Setting the Splash Screen in Silverlight 2

Pete Brown - 11 March 2008

If you read my article on xap and saw the bit about how to set the splash/loading screen for your silverlight app, you may have been left wondering how you handle that without resorting to the old createSilverlight script.

Cameron Albert has come up with the solution for you: a new class, derived from the System.Web.UI.SilverlightControls.Silverlight asp.net class, that handles that goo for you.

Cool stuff! Thanks to Tim Heuer for bringing this to my attention.

    Thanks Pete, I was inspired by your post about the splash screen and wanted to create something reusable. So, rather than create a new control I just used the one they already had out there. :) Got to love the .NET Reflector!
