You can embed the silverlight application in any webapplication. You dont need VS2008 for that.
Place the xap file in the web folder and add it to ur aspx page and add the mime types for silverlight to work in IIS, you can get the details of the mimetypes to be added in the following link

Hi,
You don't necessarily have to do it with VS 2008.
I have done something similar with Visual WebGui which is a framework over VS and it allows Silverlight and DHTML to integrate and interoperate in a very simple way.

Thanks shaji
IS XAP file can be created using Blend? when i created the silverlight project in blend it created 2 JS files, html page and xaml file. I tought i can include the js files , xaml files in aspx page ??

when you build the app from blend there will be a xap file generated in the \Bin\Debug folder. You can use that. there is no need of any other files

hi shaji,
Thanks for the reply. I able to create the xap file using blend 2.5 june preview.
I edited iis6 to include xap mime type
now how can i add the xap in the aspx page which displays the silverlight animation within the div?
i couldnt find any article.
Note- am using vwd2008 to create the website
thanks
