WPF custom control on aspx

1
Hi,

I am trying to use a wpf custom control (that I created seperately, simple hello world, with no UI) on a web page (.aspx) in a web application. Is it possible to use a wpf custom control like that? If yes, how? If I simply add the dll of compiled custom control as reference, and try to create object, it gives me error " The calling thread must be STA, because many UI components require this." So, there must be more detail to it. I tried to google this error and follow the solution links but they did not make sense to me in this senario. So just wanted to first check if what I am doing is even possible, if yes, How ...?

Thanks a bunch,

WPF controls are only usable in WPF applications. You can't use a desktop control in a web application.

Look into using SilverLight to achieve the same look and feel as your WPF control.
