Microsoft Expression Web
Microsoft has replaced FrontPage with a new Web editing suite called Microsoft Expressions Web. Expressions Web combines the best of Visual Studio and FrontPage. A new user interface makes creating XHTML, CSS, XML, XSLT, and ASP.NET2.0 easier. CSS-based pages are automatically created instead of being an add-on to traditional HTML. RSS feeds can easily be displayed on your Web site when you import a feed's XML file. Although Expressions Web is a little more difficult to learn, it is a powerful Web editor.
