In this 7th part of the Countdown to Silverlight 3 series Andrej Tozon presents another powerful Silverlight 3 feature - Navigation. Here is a list with Andrej's previous posts from the series:
- Countdown to Silverlight 3 #1: Out of Browser applications
- Countdown to Silverlight 3 #2: Setting styles
- Countdown to Silverlight 3 #3: Merged resource dictionaries
- Countdown to Silverlight 3 #4: Element binding
- Countdown to Silverlight 3 #5: ChildWindow (Modal, Non-modal, Templated)
- Countdown to Silverlight 3 #6: System colors
The concept is very simple: provide a space on your main page, which you’ll later fill with custom content – pages. You’ll be able to navigate through these pages (by using browser’s Forward/Back buttons, directly access them and even provide custom parameters.
