August 12th 2010 Opera – Now With Silverlight!

I just updated my Opera browser to 10.6.1, and had the pleasant surprise of seeing that Silverlight is now integrated into the browser.  This is GREAT news for all of us Silverlight developers out there, and I couldn’t be happier. The only downside is that I was using Opera as my test browser when it came to checking the PluginNotInstalledTemplate for Silverlight.  I guess I will just have to use Browser Shots to do my testing now.  It may take a bit longer, but the pros definitely outweigh this small con.

So, welcome all you Opera fans, to the wonderful world of Silverlight! Please don’t forget to visit Tim Dietrich.ca to see my homage to Silverlight.  See you there!
