    The next item in this series is the drupal popular content block. You can see this block on the right hand side titled 'Popular content' that lists my sites popular content of all time.mattserbinskihome-thumb The current block actually uses the views (version 2) module to display the content, but this information ultimately comes from drupals core statistics module. The information will be hosted in a custom silverlight control that I have created that simply sends requests to my custom drupal module and displays the data that it receives.

    I will be writing a few posts on connecting silverlight and drupal in which I will replicate my main site. I will be doing this piece by piece as I investigate each drupal module that I am using and how I can request the appropriate data to populate my silverlight controls. I have outlined the basics needed to accomplish this in my previous post and will be focusing on the new information that is needed to complete each new piece.

    Drupal is an open source content management system (CMS) that allows users to add modules to their sites for great flexibility. These modules are typically written in PHP and use drupal's API to connect themselves with the framework. Silverlight (version 2.0 and greater) is a cross-platform browser plugin that allows users to write managed .NET code for the back end and use XAML as the front end. Since silverlight is a browser application and drupal is a framework for hosting data in browsers there can be data that is shared between the two using HTTP as the transport. In this example, I have chosen to use XML-RPC as drupal uses xml-rpc natively and silverlight can easily take advantage of this.
