Its been a crazy weekend. I've moved into my new servers at MaximumASP and I could not be happier. On the new server, I have full control over the box so I can make it work the way it should have. In the old system, I was doing all sort of re-routing tricks to host 8 sites under a single web site. It was a nightmare that made it difficult to use new technology (e.g. if the root site was using AJAX 1.0, I couldn't have one of the sub sites use 3.5). All that is over and hopefully you will see some new stuff on this site soon! .

I was teaching on the Silverlight Tour today and since the new release of Silverlight 2.0 is around the corner, I decided to do most my demos in Silverlight 1.1 instead of Silverlight 1.0. There were two problems that cropped up during the class. Luckily my students were patient while we dug deeper to find out why it was acting wonky. The two issues I found were:
If you have spent anytime with Silverlight, you've likely run across the cross-site scripting issue. Essentially, the browser doesn't let you do web requests from other sites than the one you're hosted in. This is to prevent nasty script kiddies from doing nefarious things.
