New Era, New Tool
Microsoft Expression Web helps you to reduce complexity and ease data integration by using powerful design tools and task panes to quickly incorporate XML data. You can seamlessly integrate Web design and development teams with Expression Web and Visual Studio's superior support for XML, ASP.NET and XHTML. The software is also designed to help you unleash your creative ideas and bring your Web sites to life with sophisticated CSS design features. Visual designers, specialized task panes, and tool bars give you precise control of page layout and formatting. These superior tools will let you build dynamic, interactive pages that harness the power of the Web, and the built-in support for today's modern Web standards means that it's easier than ever to optimize your sites for accessibility and cross-browser compatibility. This all translates to superior performance with the same Microsoft passion about delivering the highest quality and standards possible.

Standards-Based Web Sites
With Expressions Web, you can create CSS-based, XHTML 1.0 Transitional-conforming Web sites by default. This means that you creations will work better across browsers, simplifying deployment and maintenance. You'll be able to configure flexible schema settings to support all combinations of HTML, XHTML, Strict, Transitional, Frameset and CSS 1.0, 2.0, and 2.1 plus browser-specific schemas, and validate your site with compatibility and accessibility reporting and against Section 508 and W3C Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).

Generating elegant, modern CSS layouts with state-of-the-art surface design tools has never been easier. A sophisticated CSS rendering engine inside gives you the confidence to make design decisions on the fly, and you can even try out CSS styles on the page with drag-and-drop style management and migrate them to a central repository. Typing aids and IntelliSense in the Code View make your process extremely efficient and fast.

Rich Data Presentation and Powerful Server Technology
Using drag-and drop tools for quick visualization, you can build and format views of industry-standard XML data. An XPath Expression Builder allows you to create complex queries, and XSL Transform (XSLT) support gives you the flexibility to present data any way you want. The software can also help you retrieve and present XML data via live RSS feeds that match your site's formatting.

Expressions Web harnesses the power of ASP.NET 2. to transform your sites into dynamic, interactive Web applications. No code data binding is required with the application's integrated support for server and user controls. Expressions Web also makes inserting and configuring ASP.NET controls a snap with the controls toolbox, properties grid, and on-control "action menus," while the ASP.NET Master Pages make site-wide changes quick and easy.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - This thing is impossible
I've been building web pages using Frontpage since its first release. I've upgraded all the way through 2003. I thought upgrading to Expression was a good idea, but it has been nothing but frustrating.

I'm not a novice. I work in Photoshop to build my own graphics for all my websites - personal and professional - never used a template in Frontpage. I built everything from the ground up, and I found Expression to be an exercise in tooth gnashing. Nothing works the way it should.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Wait for 2.0
Background: I am not professional user in the sense of making a living from Web site construction but I have created and maintained personal, commercial, and informational sites. Typically using either Frontpage or Dreamweaver depending on the project but always on the look out for something better.

As other reviewers have pointed out, Expression is not an upgrade to Frontpage but something else entirely---Microsoft's attempt to compete with Adobe Dreamweaver. So if you are looking for ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - MS Expression Web - Best Bang For Your Web Programming Buck

I was introduced to Microsoft Expression Web Professional Design Tool and have used it for almost a year at this point. While I have since stepped up to the much steeper learning curve and more archaic add-ons included in Microsoft Expression Studio, Expression Web is still the heart of this product and the best value out of all the components of Studio.

Everybody talks about Expression Web in terms of Frontpage, Dreamweaver, GoLive and the like. Actually this is more of a bridge ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Wish I had spent the money first elsewhere and saved it here
I spent the money and I am not stupid but this I was not able to master so I paid a professional. Doesn't mean I won't continue trying but not friendly like I thought.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - I hate it.
I've been publishing websites since 1998, first using FrontPage1998, then switching to Yahoo's SiteBuilder. I bought Expression, feeling like I needed to step up to "standards-based" web design tool.

After three weeks of work, including studying "Expression Web for Dummies" and "Using Microsoft Expression Web," I am NO closer to figuring out how to put up a decent looking web page. The tutorial CD that came with the package didn't work either, which should have been a clue.

I ... Read More
