In this last chapter of the book, we are going to cover everything related to deployment. We will start the chapter with discussing how to configure the Silverlight plugin's object tag.

In this chapter we will cover the following topics:
Configuring the Silverlight plugin
Dynamically loading application resources
Creating client access policy
