  • Введение В Silverlight 3
    2 Здравствуйте, дорогой читатель! Мы очень рады продолжить добрую традицию и представить Вам первую книгу о технологии Microsoft Silverlight 3 на русском языке! Microsoft Silverlight позволяет разработчикам с помощью простых и мощных инструментов создавать интерактивные Интернет- приложения, которые становятся все популярнее среди широкого круга пользователей. Данная технология уже используется на многих известных ресурсах – как в мире, так и в России. Silverlight 3 – важный шаг в развитии технологии. Среди новых возможностей можно отметить 3D-трансформации, аппаратное ускорение, работа вне браузера и много другое. Уже более трети Интернет-устройств в мире имеют установленный Silverlight. Принимая во внимание текущую динамику, можно с уверенностью сказать, что данная технология будет и дальше распространяться среди пользователей во всем мире, и Россия здесь не исключение. Менее года назад мы выпустили электронную книгу «Введение в Microsoft Silverlight 2», за это время ее загрузило более 30000 читателей. Для перевода книги по Silverlight 3 мы вновь выбрали издание Лоуренса Морони, основываясь на положительных отзывах от Вас, российских разработчиков, и на международном опыте. Книга представляет комплексный обзор Silverlight 3, который будет интересен как тем, кто уже имеет опыт работы с прошлыми версиями данной технологии, так и для начинающих свой путь в мир Silverlight. В завершение хочу поблагодарить Вас за интерес к технологии Microsoft Silverlight и предлагаю окунуться в увлекательный мир интерактивности.

  • Creating a Web Site with Expression Web

Before you hang your shingle as a Web publisher, though, you should understand what you’re really doing when you create and publish a Web site. No doubt you’ve already seen a Web site. Web sites are the places you visit as you make your way around the World Wide Web. In the same way as a book is made up of individual pages, a Web site is made up of individual files called Web pages. Web pages contain the text, pictures, and other content you see when you visit a Web site. As you constructCOPYRIGHTED a Web site, you create WebMATERIAL pages and then string the pages together by using hyperlinks. Hyperlinks are the highlighted words and pic- tures inside the page that visitors can click to jump to a different location, page, or Web site. Hyperlinks can also initiate a download or pop open an e-mail window. After your site is complete, you publish it. In other words, you make the site visible to the rest of the world on the World Wide Web (or, if you’re working on an internal company site, on the company’s intranet).

Tarkoituksena on tutkia mikä Silverlight on ja kuinka sitä käyte- tään. Apuna käytetään Expression Studiota, jonka tarkoitus on enimmäkseen tukea Silverlight:a. Expression Stu- dio koostuu useasta ohjelmasta, jotka esitellään tässä työssä. Ohjelmointityöhön liittyy japanin kieli, joten japanin kielestä on oma kohtansa teoriaosuudessa. Ohjelmointityönä on tehty web-sovellus, joka tutustuttaa käyttäjän japanin kielen alkeisiin. Alkuun ongelmat koskivat Silverlight:a ja Expression Studio:a, joiden tuntemus oli heik- koa. Japanin kielestä piti keksiä kaikki harjoitukset ja niiden toimivuutta piti testata, samoin kuin sivuston toimi- vuutta. Työ aloitettiin tutkimalla ja opettelemalla Silverlight:n käyttöä, samalla kun ohjelmointityö oli vielä alkuvaiheessa. Kun Silverlight oli saatu teknillisesti sisäistettyä, voitiin siitä kirjoittaa teoriaa. Ohjelmointityöstä tehtiin lopullinen suunnitelma, kun Silverlight:n käyttö oli hallussa ja selvitettiin mitä Expression

  • Opening a Web Site in Microsoft Expression Web
    Opening a Web Site in Microsoft Expression Web If you are working on a Maxwell computer that’s running Window 7, then you will find “Expression Web 3” has replaced “SharePoint Designer” for editing web pages. You will find Expression Web 3 in this location: Start > All Programs Microsoft Expression > Microsoft Expression Web 3 While it’s similar to SharePoint Designer (and the old Microsoft Frontpage) in many ways, you will find the menu used to open and connect to your web site has moved. Please follow these steps to opening your site: 1) Go to the menu Site > Manage Sites List… 2) Add your Maxwell site address to the list. In most cases, your site will be accessed through a path starting like this: G:\MAX-Filer\Webhost\zzzzz-sites\jdoe\ Continue through the folder structure to find your personal faculty or class folder. When you reach your personal folder such as this: G:\MAX-Filer\Webhost\faculty-sites\jdoe\ G:\MAX-Filer\Webhost\classes-sites\your-class\ Finish adding the site by clicking the “add” button. 3) Your site can now be opened by going back to the menu: Site > Open Site… > Select your site > Open Once the site is open, you will find that making typical site edits should be very similar to the process of editing your web pages in SharePoint Designer. NOTE: If you connected to the “development” location for your site and need to “publish” your site to the live server please add your publishing destination through the following menu: Site > Site Settings > Add… For further information please email [email protected].
