Re: How can I tell in javascript when a silverlight control is fully loaded?

perhaps someone has a more 'official' solution, but it seems like you'd be able to invoke a javascript function with Browser.HtmlPage.Window.Eval("someJavascriptFunction();") in the Loaded event of Page.xaml.

the loaded event fires when the silverlight object is loaded and ready for interaction. then of course 'someJavascriptFunction' would be able to interact with it.

How can I tell in javascript when a silverlight control is fully loaded?

I have a page that dynamically creates a silverlight control, using the provided function "Silverlight.createObjectEx."

This generally works fine, but I'm running into a problem. I need to load the control, and then have javascript make a call into the control to pass in some data. The problem is that if I create the object, and then immediately call the exposed function, I get an exception on the page. If I put in a hack to have javascript sleep for a few seconds,and then I make the same call into the silverlight object, it works as expected.

Is there any way to detect when a silverlight control is ready for the containing page to communciate with it via javascript?

Thanks
