Cannot debug Silverlight application running through VS 2010

I have an start up page called Default.aspx . Have written an javscript function inside the Head tag which opens an other aspx page and closes this page . The other aspx page of mine has silverlight object/ content render on that page . Due to this my debugger doesnt gets attached to the running silverlight application , also when i go to manually attach to the running Silverlight Application it doesnt works , i saw that type of process shown is script / silverlight / x86.

I am doing this all as my login page is only created in silverlight .

Any one have idea how can i get debugger atached.

Edit :

Below link explains the same what i am facing : Visual Studio Attach to Process - change default automatic code type (Silverlight instead of Script)

Just use IE as default browser. It doesn't work properly until you check silver-light debug checkbox and use IE as the others told. By the way set web application as start-up project.

A very nice utility is the WoVS Default Browser Switcher which can be installed using the Extension Manager (Tools | Extension Manager...)

This tool allows you to set the default browser to be used when debugging your project. In my experience Visual Studio only connects well to IE.

Using the tool I can keep another browser as my default browser but use IE for debugging.

To enable Silverlight debugging:

  • Right click on the Web project hosting the Silverlight application in Solution Explorer
  • Select "Properties"
  • Click the "Web" tab
  • Check the "Silverlight" box in the "Debuggers" section

I had problems debugging Silverlight in Chrome, while in IE it worked like a charm
