Say I have a C# Silverlight 3 application with a number of pages. The first page is called Home, and the second page is called Details. The only way to navigate to details i
Have you tried the NavigationService?
this.NavigationService.Navigate(new Uri("Details.xaml", UriKind.Relative));
C# App.Current.Host.NavigationState = "/Welcome";
XAML
The best solution is:
Add this code to your App.xaml.cs:
private static Grid root;
private void Application_Startup(object sender, StartupEventArgs e)
{
root = new Grid();
root.Children.Add(new MainPage());
this.RootVisual = root;
}
public static void Navigate(UserControl newPage)
{
UserControl oldPage = root.Children[0] as UserControl;
root.Children.Add(newPage);
root.Children.Remove(oldPage);
}
And then, to navigate between pages, you'll just have to call:
App.Navigate(new OtherSamplePage());
c#:
this.navContent.Navigate(new Uri("Welcome", UriKind.Relative));
XAML:
<navigation:Frame
x:Name="navContent"
HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch"
VerticalContentAlignment="Stretch"
Source="Welcome">
<navigation:Frame.UriMapper>
<uriMapper:UriMapper>
<uriMapper:UriMapping Uri="Welcome" MappedUri="/Views/Welcome.xaml" />
<uriMapper:UriMapping Uri="Profile" MappedUri="/Views/Profile.xaml" />
<uriMapper:UriMapping Uri="Details/{id}" MappedUri="/Views/Details.xaml?photoid={id}" />
</uriMapper:UriMapper>
</navigation:Frame.UriMapper>
</navigation:Frame>
Even your "details" page should be mapped (despite what you said.)
Try using this. This worked for me.
((System.Windows.Controls.Frame)(this.Parent)).Navigate(new Uri("/Import",UriKind.Relative));
