Silverlight Offline Application From Tray ICON

06-28-2009 1:06 AM |

Hi,

I am new to Silverlight, I am sorry; if it silly question.

I would like to develop Silverlight Application, which provide alert windows and other important messages (like Outlook Mail alert near tray area) when user is not opened my web site. At the time opening website First Time, it has to install one icon at Tray Area. Using that Tray Area application it has to give some user interface (silverlight) and other functionality windows.

Is it possible to create such type of Interface (browser less) in silverlight and control from Tray Area icon.

Thank you,

-nm reddy

There is an Out of Browser (OOB) feature in Silverlight 3 - Beta. However, OOB in this release is still sandboxed in the same manner as regular Silverlight Applications. Unfortunately, there is currently no mechanism for pop-up notifications or tray icons.

If this has answered your question, please click on "Mark as Answer" on this post.
