Silverlight 3.0 and web development

Question

Recently, I have just been assigned a web application / website development project that uses the full capacity of Silverlight 3.0 . I am new to website development, and so far I am more involved in software development than in web development.

Nevertheless, I am very pleased with this new experience, because I feel that I can explore more. So I started learning the .NET Framework, C # and a bit of ASP.NET for the past 3 days.

Just to let you know my programming experience, I have been programming in Java and C for 3 years now, so I'm experienced enough. Any suggestions you can give me?

The project will start in 1.5 months, so I got something that can be caught up. I think my approach first is to first understand the concepts of .NET and ASP.NET, and then learn Silverlight at the end. I believe that C # will not be too heavy looking at my background that I have.

Can you recommend some good books and other resources that will help me in my educational process?

What are some sample applications using Silverlight that can use a database? Right now I'm just confused about how C # and ASP.NET can be tied to Silverlight. Perhaps I have not received this .NET knowledge yet.
