Why is it in the following silverlight application that when I:

• change the default text in the first textbox
• move the cursor to the second text box (i.e. take focus off first textbox)
• click the button

that inside the button handler, it still has the old value "default text"?

What do I have to do to get the binding to work in Silverlight? The same code works fine in WPF.

XAML:

<UserControl x:Class="TestUpdate123.MainPage"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" 
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008" xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006" 
    mc:Ignorable="d" d:DesignWidth="640" d:DesignHeight="480">
  <StackPanel Margin="10" HorizontalAlignment="Left">

          <TextBox 
        Text="{Binding InputText}"
        Height="200"
        Width="600"
        Margin="0 0 0 10"/>

        <StackPanel HorizontalAlignment="Left">
            <Button Content="Convert" Click="Button_Convert_Click" Margin="0 0 0 10"/>
        </StackPanel>

        <TextBox 
        Height="200"
        Width="600"
        Margin="0 0 0 10"/>

        <TextBlock 
            Text="{Binding OutputText}"/>

        </StackPanel>

</UserControl>
