Thanks Johnathan, So can I download the image at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=108181 and put it on my server? I assume that image is freely distributable.

I cannot assure you this. Since you are using template, you'd better do something much more specific. Anyway, you can use a image and set the image's url to http://silverlight.dlservice.microsoft.com/download/d/2/9/d29e5571-4b68-4d95-b43a-4e81ba178455/2.0/ENU/InstallSilverlight.png Thanks.

Best regards,

Hi Mike4268,

Actually, it is an issue with Https. When we try to visit https://go2.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=141884, it will prompt you

Just click Continue to this website and download the installation file.

However the image, http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=108181, cannot be changed to https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=108181 because it's a link to another image.

Actually, we can get our silverlight-uninstalled image by doing it like this.

<asp:Silverlight ID="Xaml1" runat="server" Source="~/ClientBin/NewLoaded.xap" MinimumVersion="2.0.31005.0" Width="100%" Height="100%">
<PluginNotInstalledTemplate>

                    //setting here
                </PluginNotInstalledTemplate>
            </asp:Silverlight>

Best regards,

Jonathan

Ok, I can check window.location.href to see if it's https, and if so I can change the silverlight download url to be https. However the image, http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=108181, cannot be changed to https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=108181 because it's a link to another image.

I have a secure webpage with silverlight content on it. If I open the page in IE8 without silverlight installed, I get this warning: "Do you want to view only the webpage content that was delivered securely?" If I click yes, then the install silverlight image doesn't show up. If I then click on the thing that appears in its place, I get "Navigation canceled"
