XAML Browser Application

Hi,

I have "traditional" .aspx page. This page has small IFRAME Element of size 20x20. I want this IFRAME element to invoke WPF browser application (.xbap url in src attribute). I assume this should not be a problem.

Next, my .xbap in IFRAME at runtime generates a "Canvas" of size 400x400. My question is can I make this "Canvas" to cross boundries of IFRAME and render all over base page elements? if not, is there any suggestion/workaround for this?

Thanks in advance.

Consider using script to resize the iframe hosting the XBAP/XAML file:

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<script language="javascript">
function OnFrameLoad()
{
var myFrame = document.all.myFrame;
if (myFrame.readyState=="complete")
{
myFrame.height = 400;
myFrame.width = 400;
}
}
</script>
<div style="background-color:Yellow">
<iframe name="myFrame" id="myFrame" onreadystatechange="OnFrameLoad();"
src="\\someserver\test\browserhosteddeployapp.xbap" />
</div>
</body>
</html>

Hi Chango,

Thanks this could be the one solution.

However, another question (may not be exactly related to this) is can one xbap application in a IFRAME be able to talk to another xbap application in another IFRAME of the same page? What I understand is as these two xbap application exe's executing as seperate processes on client machin, they will not know how to communicate to each other? Am I right?

Thanks in advance.

In v1 there is no supported way to talk to an XBAP hosted in HTML. But two XBAPs could talk to each other 1) via the server--you get WebPermission to the site-of-origin... or 2) via client-side cookies - see Application.SetCookie().
