    When it comes time to display a Popup that overlays the entire Silverlight plug-in, most people do it the same way. Unfortunately, although the typical approach appears correct at first glance (and may even survive a test pass!), there are some problems that are just about guaranteed to surface once the application is released. The purpose of this post is to educate people about those issues - and suggest an alternative approach that is easier to get right.

    I created a simple user control using the Popup control as a starting point. The end result is a nice little user control that can be used as a popup control to display a message. It has only 1 button on it (an OK button that closes the popup control). I’ll outline the basic steps of creating the User Control and how the popup control works with it. Of course, you can create a popup control without the user control, but its a much cleaner practice to create user controls.
