Make Microsoft Silverlight Ready For Firefox 3

Tomorrow will be the official release of Mozilla Firefox 3. The new release will break some Microsoft Silverlight 1.0 installation experience on web sites that used the original Silverlight 1.0 SDK Silverlight.js file.

Silverlight is Microsoft  cross-browser, cross-platform plug-in for delivering the next generation of media and rich experiences on the Web.

The Silverlight 2 SDK has an updated Silverlight.js file that not only solves this problem for all versions of Silverlight but also eliminates browser restart that was previously needed for new installs. You can get the SDK as part of the Install Silverlight Tools Beta 2 for Visual Studio 2008 or through download center. You can read more about this on Piotr’s blog posts HERE and HERE.
