We're excited to announce that Eric Meyer (http://meyerweb.com/ and http://www.complexspiral.com/), internationally recognized authority on HTML, CSS, and web standards, and author of some of the essential books on CSS (as if you didn't already know all that!), has released a pre-release version of his CSS Sculptor for Expression Web.

The CSS Sculptor for Expression Web helps you create custom web standards compliant, CSS-based layouts. Finally, you can confidently and resolutely abandon your antiquated table-based layouts and start churning out CSS layouts like nobody's business!

To work with the CSS Sculptor, download the CSS Sculptor installer, close Expression Web, and then run the CSS Sculptor installer. Once the installation is done, start Expression Web (either 2 or 1), and you will have two new items. On the Insert menu, you will have a new WebAssist submenu, like this:

And on the File menu, you will have a new command named New CSS Sculptor Page, like this:

Keep an eye on this blog for another post in which we walk you through using this cool new tool! After you try the tool out, give Eric your feedback directly by commenting on his own blog post about this tool:

And join in a discussion about the tool, or seek out help or advice, on the new Expression Web forum:

And as always, let us know what you think!
