    <p>ASP.NET MVC <strong>and</strong> silverlight? </p> <p>In some ways, it is an either-or choice - your data is displayed either in html/css/js generated by ASP.NET, or in Silverlight. Why mix them? I'm sure that ASP.NET MVC is a good way to deliver Silverlight, but that doesn't necessarily make it part of the same UI. </p> <p>It's generally about reach vs. richness. A web UI with no Silverlight or Flash can reach more users, but one with Silverlight can have a richer UI. Silverlight is good fun to code in, and I have seen some wonderful apps using Silverlight's streaming video features, but if e.g. you are doing data entry and display, and you don't need the richness of Silverlight, then why not keep the reach and stay in Asp.Net? </p> <p>If you are going to do the UI in silverlight it makes sense to do all of it in Silverlight. I have had good experiences with all the <a href="http://blogs.conchango.com/davidwynne/archive/2008/12/15/silverlight-and-the-view-viewmodel-pattern.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">ViewModel</a>-view-controller page flow happening inside the Silverlight app, rather than transitioning to another html page and loading a different silverlight app. It's faster and you can do fancy transition or fade-in effects in Silverlight's XAML markup.</p> <p>Why is "reduced AJAX exposure" a desirable goal? Sites like e.g. Stackoverflow here use AJAX techniques to very good effect.</p> <p>Stephen Walther's talk at MIX09 shows four pillars of ASP.Net as it currently stands - Forms, MVC, AJAX and Dynamic data. A lot of people are Seeing it as "moving from forms to MVC" but there are other approaches also being developed in the mix.</p>

    1. COAJAX has many benefits, but risks include browser variations in behavior, debugging, JS turned off, execution speed. With Silveright, if it's installed, you can be a little more confident about what you've got to work with, and you can push the boundaries more aggressively.

    2. COI agree with your point about "other approaches" - that's the sense of my question. One "approach" I'm musing about is to take a single MVC implementation and see how little it could be changed while suing Silverlight to enrich the UI. Could be a net plus even though it doesn't max the SL benefit.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
