Silverlight was intended to be some kind of an alternative (or better competitor) to Adobe's Flash player: Silverlight and Flash applications both run on the client side, applications are embedded in a website or called externally by the Flash player Standalone (don't know if there is a standalone Silverlight player). In your case you could create a Silverlight application and embed this into one of your pages or you could create a serverside application with PHP which provides the functionality you desire. Regarding your other question about Apache and IIS on one machine (which may be obsolete now): 1.) You can have your PHP scripts run on IIS as well 2.) Simply change your HTTP port in Apache (in httpd.conf) to something like 8080 and install IIS afterwards, it will use port 80 automatically if is available 3.) You can also call and control windows applications / components (like ADODB.Recordsets and so on) with various PHP functions, so you probably don't have to use IIS additionally to your Apache Best regards, Sascha > > -----Original Message----- > From: Elizabeth M Smith [mailto:auroraeosrose@gmail.com] > Sent: Thursday, November 19, 2009 10:57 AM > To: php-windows@lists.php.net > Subject: Re: [PHP-WIN] php and silverlight > > Harpreet wrote: >> Can I use LINQ with PHP?? >> > > Yes - well kind of ;) > > http://www.codeplex.com/PHPLinq > > Thanks, > Elizabeth Smith >
