I recently struggled a bit with getting my silverlight application to resize with the
browser using the following hook in C# code:
BrowserHost.Resize += new EventHandler(BrowserHost_Resize);
(placed in the Page_Loaded event handler of the main page.xaml)
The event just wouldn't fire when the browser resized :|
...until I discovered that you need to change the auto-generated
TestPage.html properties to the following: (specify percentages instead of pixel size)

.silverlightHost { width: 100%; height: 100%; }
