Hi Chris,
In version 3.0, no, we still had some parts that relied upon Silverlight. As of version 4.0 Beta 1, though, I believe we've migrated all parts of Esri Maps for SharePoint to JavaScript and no longer rely on the Silverlight framework.
Our 4.0 Beta 2 release should be headed out via the Beta Community shortly...
Katy
In version 3.0 could the user access all functionality of the EMSP (Esri Maps for SharePoint) product without using Silverlight?
Hi Ray,
Yes, with the release of Esri Maps for SharePoint 3.0 we introduced the JavaScript-based Esri Maps Web Part and we encourage you to migrate to this new web part. Due in part to Microsoft's move away from Silverlight, we are no longer focusing development efforts on the Silverlight-based ArcGIS Map Web Part, and therefore it is unlikely that issues such as the links to attachments that you refer to will be resolved.
Please let me know if you have additional questions.
Are you guys moving away from the Silverlight ArcGIS Map web part in favor of the Javascript ESRI Maps web part? The attachment bug with the ArcGIS web part has been out there for years with no resolution, just wondering if this is intentional and we should move in a different direction (the JS web part), or not.
Hey Katy. I see what you're talking about but is there a step by step process with a screen shot that you can link?
I'm guessing you are using Internet Explorer? You need to go to the Esri Maps Administration (under Site Settings) and open the Configuration Settings list. In there, set AllowSignInOverHttpProxy to True. Note that this setting will allow sending a password over http instead of https.

Same deal here. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?
