I have a webbrowser control with some html inside it, now when i open a silverlight child window,
the silverlight child window goes behind the webbrowser control. This seems to really distort the UI.
Any solution for this.

Not enough information. Distort? How?

The WebBrowser control is not a silverlight object and sits on top of all content. You need to flip Visibility between the WebBrowser control and a rectangle with the fill set to WebBrowserBrush when the child window is visible and back when it's not. Something like:

HTML

<webbrowser x:name="browserControl" source="{Binding URL}" xmlns:x="#unknown" />
<rectangle x:name="browserControlRect" xmlns:x="#unknown">
    <rectangle.fill>
        <webbrowserbrush sourcename="browserControl" />
    </rectangle.fill>
</rectangle>

Then either VSM, Behaviours, or code to do the toggling.
