Get more done with software that works the way you do. With task panes and menus

Photoshop files to create your website graphics.
Standards Based on Site Design
Reach for a tool that's been built with today's modern standards in mind, and
see results in better browser rendering and more relevant search engine
indexing. Expression Web builds sites to XHTML, CSS, XML, and XSLT, making sure
your pages are compliant throughout the design process.
CSS Layout
Separate design from content with Cascading Style Sheets-the complex technology
that's behind today's modern sites. Expression Web's design-focused tools show
you a visual hierarchy of styles, give you drag-and-drop control of margins, and
offer many other ways to make working with CSS easy.
CSS Site Templates
Jump right in with Expression Web's professionally designed, standards-compliant
site templates in a broad range of categories. Or make your own CSS designs from
a host of DIV-based layouts.
CSS Style Application
Choose between automatically generated CSS styles or generate them manually for
absolute control over the type of rule created and its precise location. The
choice is yours.
CSS Management
Get a visual overview of where CSS rules are created, where they're located, and
their application order with Expression Web's industry-leading CSS management
tools. It's never been easier to manage complex CSS in a site.
Property Task Pane
See at a glance the full range of CSS and tag attributes available to you from
either of the property task panes. You can reorder the list to find just what
you need, or get a summary of "in use” CSS properties for fast reference.
Rich Data Presentation
Show that XML data who's master! Simply drag and drop an XML file and it's
immediately rendered by an XSL stylesheet that you can reformat to match your
site's style. Now you can include, filter and sort and style data from any XML
source easily.
ASP .NET 3.5
Harness the power of ASP.NET with a wide variety of controls, including
navigation, calendars, logins and database integration. No coding is needed, as
they're all rendered within the design surface.
Edit PHP pages
Broaden your scope by now editing PHP sites with Expression Web 2. Apply the
full set of standards based design tools to a wider range of sites.
