What is Expression Web?

Deliver standards-compliant Web experiences with Expression Web 4

Whether you're an expert or just getting started, building standards-based Web sites is faster and easier with Microsoft Expression Web 4.

If you're a designer or developer, use Expression Web to do what you do best. And if you're part of a diverse team, sharing an Expression Web project has never been easier thanks to integration with Expression Studio and Visual Studio.

Create compelling Web sites visually

If you think and create visually, use the state-of-the-art design surface to layout your Web page. You can make design decisions on the fly, knowing that you're seeing a faithful representation of the final browser-rendered page.

Drag and drop controls simplify adding rich media, such as Silverlight from Microsoft Expression Blend^®, Silverlight video, Adobe Flash, and Windows Media. And advanced Adobe Photoshop file import gives you complete control over imported layers and transparency.

Create standards-based Web sites faster and easier

If you think and breathe code, Expression Web has you covered there too with flexible support for a wide range of essential technologies: PHP, HTML/XHTML, XML/XSLT, CSS, JavaScript, ASP.NET and ASP.NET AJAX, Silverlight, Flash, Photoshop files, and video/audio for webcasting.

SuperPreview speeds browser compatibility testing

Expression Web speeds the essential task of browser compatibility testing. With SuperPreview, you can debug your pages on the same machine that you use for development. SuperPreview supports Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Macintosh Safari.

SuperPreview not only shows a high-fidelity rendering of how pages will look on different browsers, but it also identifies the element’s tag, size and position, applied styles, and location in the DOM (Document Object Model) tree so you can quickly fix the error.
