Expression Web and Dynamic web template: Showing designer support to create a template for new web pages. Whenever creating a new page, different regions can be marked as editable. Whenever a user will open the page in the designer, only the regions marked as editable are changeable.

Default standars for Expression Web is XHTML 1.0 Transitional and CSS 2.1. Whenever you import old content from a web page done when other standards existed, you often end up importing it into a new design. You may break the new standards. Expression Web helps you with that.

You can then select Reformat HTML, and only 3 errors are left, which can be fixed easily.
