Can I build silverlight applications with Visual Studio 2005 Professional without installing or upgrading to Visual Studio 2008?
I mean, are there any SDK or tools available for Visual Studio 2005 like "Silverlight tools for Visual Studio 2008"?
I am waiting.... please tell me...I shall be highly thankful to you from core of my heart for this...

No you can not use VS 2005. Remember you can use the free Visual Web Developer 2008 with sp1 to develop silverlight apps also

Not really. You could do something like this, but it is probably more work than it is worth. You'd be better off just downloading VS 2008 Web Dev Express to handle the Silverlight development and use VS 2005 for your web development and have VS 2008 copy the xap files to your web directory.
