HTML container control : control to render HTML in silverlight

11-19-2008 2:44 AM |

Hi,

I have a problem to load a pre defined HTML page (with JavaScript and frames) in my silverlight application and I did not find any control which can render HTML in silverlight. I am using silverlight 2.0 please let me know, if there is any silverlight control which is offering HTML rendering.

Thanks in Advance

 Hi,

 There is no HTML control in Silverlight, but it doesnt need one :)

Silverlight runs in the Browser, so just grab a DIV using the HTML DOM Bridge, and overlay it on top of the Silverlight application in the right spot...

There are plenty of examples of this on the net... have a hunt around 

TIP: You will need your Silverlight control to be running in Windowless mode.

There's a difference between a "html editor" and a "richtext editor".

 Think of richtext as an xml document in the developers predefined format, however using the functionality in that richtextbox control (Cheers Dan for making such an awsome control) ... you can export the richtext xml and then xsl transform it to html.

 It's not the cleanest way I've ever seen it done but for free you can't expect the planet to bend over backwards just for you can you now ;)
