Jabby - XMPP client for Windows Phone 7. Why can't I change the Background of my Button on a Click event? - Peter Torr's Blog. I've been meaning to post this for a while, since the question comes up from time to time (internally and externally) The typical problem is that you have some XAML like this: and some code-behind like this: private void ClickMe_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { (sender as Button).Background = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Green); } But when you click the button, it briefly turns White and then goes back to Red... what happened to the Green value?

They have a rich media app which needs to be able to modify the HTML DOM based on certain events. We needed to explore whether we could grab some info from one web page and use it to modify another page. We didn’t get off to the greatest of starts.
Using the WebBrowser control and InvokeScript() we continually encountered an 80020006 error. We tried everything to get to the bottom of it. So, I’m happy to confirm all works as expected and happy to provide the warning *watch out for caching of WebBrowser on the emulator*. Here’s some code to illustrate what we wanted to do. <html><head><script> function hello() { return 'hello'; } function sayHello(sayWhat) { return sayWhat; } </script></head><body> Hello </body></html> There are actually two identical pages (ie with the same source).
