As ASP.NET websites are developed using Visual Studio, Silverlight applications are developed using either Visual Studio or Expression Blend (many more apps which supports silverlight dev).
If you develop silverlight apps using Visual Studio, will not give you every benefits, you only have to develop via xaml coding.
If you wish to develop Silverlight apps by design view, you have to use Expression Blend.
In Expression Blend you have option to develop via code view, design view, or by splitting. Look at image:

Try the above if it is not working , please use Expression blend to get the design view.

Unfortunately you can not drag controls on to the design surface with visual studio 2008. You need blend for that. Visual Studio does allow you to drag the controls onto the xaml.
