i have a silverlight(.xap) in my web server and want to embed any page no matter it comes from,

for xap file url safety ,i wrote a class "XapHandler" and setting <httphandlers> in web.config file as below

 <add verb="*" path="*.mykey" type="XapHandler"/>

i've set configure ".mykey" in iis and set source tag  in embed page as below

<object data="data:application/x-silverlight," type="application/x-silverlight-2-b1">
    <param name="source" value="XXX.mykey"/>
    <param name="EnableHtmlAccess" value="true" />

 it works actually, but when i modify the source tag as below

<param name="source" value="http://www.aaa.bbb/XXX.mykey"/>

it can't find the xap file ,

so i want to know does any setting i miss or there's another way to hide xap file url ?

Thanks!!

Could it be looking for it not in the root?  E.g. does "/XXX.mykey" work?  If that doesn't help, i'd take this to the ASP.NET forums as this is more of an issue with HttpHandlers than Silverlight 2 and they might be able to provide more help than you'll get here.

Thanks your reply,Shawn

but it couldn't be looking for if xap file in root("/XXX.mykey"),

I thought the idea was to have the HttpHandler hand off the xap file for you no matter where it was specified?

m..

i just want to hide the path of xap file for everyone who embed my silverlight in their page and don't let them unzip xap file easily,using httphandlers I can change file name and extension,

in my web server, i can use <param name="source" value="XXX.mykey"/> and it works, but for other web site , they have to use
<param name="source" value="http://www.aaa.bbb/XXX.mykey"/>
unfortunately it didn't work

btw,one strange thing is I can use http://www.aaa.bbb/XXX.mykey this url to download XXX.mykey by ie but silverlight couldn't reach it

 

Hi:

  I cannot reproduce this problem. Do you get any exception?

There's no exception , sl just don't show up , i think it can't reach xap file after changed httphandlers.
