Microsoft Expression Web

3 day course

In this course, you will learn the Expression Web and HTML skills needed to build attractive, dynamic, and accessible websites. Expression Web combines an easy-to-use WYSIWYG ("what you see is what you get") development environment with the capability to edit HTML code, either directly or through panels and dialog boxes. Students will create page layouts, links, images, tables and forms, use cascading style sheets, create JavaScript behaviors, work with ASP.NET features, build drill-downs, and work with templates. This course includes plenty of hands-on exercises to ensure that students successfully develop the skills they need.
