[MonoDevelop] difficulty running both client & server in monodevelop

[HarbowNoman]

Hi, 
Playing with an (existing) silverlight solution with both client and server
code.  The client pulls data from a .ashx on the server.  I'm unable to run
in the normal way on Monodevelop (though it's fine on Visual Studio).  To
run, I have to do the following (discovered through trial and error): 
1) build in Monodevelop, 
2) cd to the server code directory and xsp --port XX, 
3) cd to the client code directory's Bin/Debug and xsp --port YY, 
4) open the client code TestPage.html in a browser
(http://localhost:YY/TestPage.html) 

Could anyone explain A) how to re-configure to run with Monodevelop's Run?
and B) what's the cause? 

When I do the normal way (1. build in Monodevelop, 2. run in Monodevelop),
it opens the TestPage without error, but it's blank (presumably unable to
communicate with the server).  The same thing occurs when I run the server
code on a (non-localhost) web server (and of course change the client's
.ashx URI accordingly.)  Not helped by putting a crossdomain.xml on the
server. 

Might be a very basic thing I'm not understanding. 

Much obliged.  Very happy with Monodevelop so far, thanks to the community.
