As you build your Web pages, you’ll find that entering, selecting, correcting, moving, and copying will become commonplace. You can use all of the text functions as you do in any other Microsoft program. With Microsoft Expression Web, you can use all the common moving, deleting, and copying functions that you have already grown accustom to. You can also find and replace and format text just as you would in Word or Excel.
When entering text, you might find it necessary to add a bulleted or numbered list. You can also create sublists and collapsible lists to use on your pages. Choosing the alignment of your text, your line spacing, and paragraph indents all work the same way as other Microsoft programs.
A style is a collection of formatting settings saved with a Web site or template that you can apply to text, graphics, and tables at any time. Expression Web comes with a standard set of styles you can apply to text. If you modify a style, you make the change once, but all text tagged with that style changes to reflect the new format. In Chapter 11, you’ll learn how to create a Cascading Style Sheet (CSS), which is style information that can be referenced by individual or multiple Web pages.
Of course, while working with all of this text, using Expression Web’s spell checker is a must. You can spell check, add familiar or custom words to your dictionary, check for common grammatical errors, or use the Thesaurus to enhance your Web pages. International Microsoft Expression Web users can change the language that appears on their screens by changing the default language settings.
There are two methods of entering text on a Web page: as part of a template or from scratch. When starting out, we strongly recommend that you work from a template. If you are working with templates, you can begin by editing the boilerplate text that opens as part of the template.
Select the template text that you wish to replace and begin typing. The boilerplate text disappears and your text begins flowing into that section of the template. Be sure to constrain your text to the original area provided in the template and, if necessary, edit what you wish to say to make the copy fit within the allotted space.
The other way to enter text is on a blank page. Create a new Web page, and then start typing. When you enter text, Expression Web automatically places text inside a container as an HTML tag. An HTML tag is code inserted in a document that specifies how the document, or a portion of the document, should be formatted. HTML defines the structure and layout of a Web document by using a variety of tags and attributes. The opening tag (<p>) marks the start of the paragraph code and a closing tag (</p>) marks the end of the paragraph, denoted by the forward slash (/). When you select a container, the tag type appears as a tab identifying the container.
The first step in working with text is to highlight, or select, the text you want. Once you’ve selected it, you can format, replace, delete, copy, and move (cut) words, sentences, and paragraphs within one Web page or between Web pages. When you finish with or decide not to use a selection, you can click anywhere in the page to deselect the text.
Position the pointer in the word, paragraph, line, or part of the page you want to select.
Choose the method that accomplishes the task you want to complete in the easiest way.
Refer to the table for methods to select text.
You can edit text in Expression Web several ways. First, you can select the text you want to edit, and then type text to replace it or press the Delete key to remove it. Another way to edit text is to place the insertion point in the text, and then type to insert text or press the Backspace or Delete keys to remove it. The Backspace key deletes text to the left, while the Delete key deletes text to the right.
Select the text you want to edit.
Perform one of the following editing commands:
Click in the page to place the insertion point where you want to make the change.
Timesaver Press Ctrl+ Backspace or Ctrl+Delete to delete one word at a time left or right.
Everyone makes mistakes and changes their mind at some point, especially when creating or revising a document. With Expression Web, you can instantly correct typing errors by pressing a key. You can also reverse more complicated actions, such as typing an entire word, formatting a paragraph, or creating a chart. With the Undo button, if you change your mind, you can just as easily click the Redo button to restore the action you reversed.
Timesaver Press Ctrl+Z to undo.
Timesaver Press Ctrl+Y to redo your undo.
As you enter or modify text on a Web page, the text automatically wraps within a container to create a paragraph. If you want to create a paragraph, all you need to do is press Enter, which inserts a paragraph break. When you insert a paragraph break, Expression Web automatically creates a new paragraph container, which is denoted with a tab labeled with a p. If you want to insert a line, yet still remain in the same paragraph, you can insert a line break. Sometimes it’s hard to see the difference between a paragraph or line break, so Expression Web provides the option to show or hide formatting marks. In addition to showing or hiding line breaks and paragraph marks, you can also show or hide spaces, comments, script blocks, container position, aligned elements, and other code-related elements.
Timesaver Click Ctrl+Alt+/ to show or hide all formatting marks.
Text can be moved and copied in Expression Web just like in other word processing software. You can move or copy text within a Web page, between Web pages, or to another program. When you cut (for a move) or copy text or graphics, Expression Web places it on the Clipboard. To complete the copy or move, you paste the data stored on the Clipboard in another location. You can use the commonly used Paste command or the Paste Text command, which provides options to control line breaks and white space. When you paste an item with the Paste command, the Paste Options button appears allowing you to keep or remove formatting or keep HTML or Text only. When you use the Paste Text command, the Paste Text dialog opens allowing you to select the option you want. To copy or move text or graphics without using the Clipboard, you can use a technique called drag-and-drop. Drag-and-drop makes it easy to copy or move text or graphics short distances on your Web page.
Select the text you want to move or copy.
To move the text from its current location, drag the selection to the new location, and then release the mouse button.
To copy the text to a new location, hold down Ctrl and drag the selection to the new location, and then release the mouse button.
You can copy and paste between documents. You can cut or copy text between pages and even between Expression Web and other Microsoft programs. Switch between programs on the system taskbar at the bottom of the screen.
Select the text you want to move or copy.
To move the text from its current location, click the Edit menu, and then click Cut. The text is removed from its current location and placed on the Clipboard.
To copy the text to a new location, click the Edit menu, and then click Copy. A copy of the text is placed on the Clipboard.
Click to position the insertion point where you want to place the cut or copied text.
Timesaver The Copy, Cut, and Paste buttons are available on the Standard toolbar.
Click the Edit menu, and then click one of the following:
The text is copied from the Clipboard to the new location, but also remains on the Clipboard for future placements.
If necessary, click the Paste Options button, and then click an option to adjust the pasted item.
You can turn on or off paste options. Click the Tools menu, click Page Editor Options, click the General tab, select or clear the Show Paste Options buttons check box, and then click OK.
Indenting paragraph text allows you to shift text to make it stand out. You can indent text to create an outline or indent the first line of a paragraph. You can use the Increase Indent Position and Decrease Indent Position buttons on the Formatting toolbar to quickly change text position or use the Paragraph dialog box to set more precise positioning. Line spacing is another way to vary the look of a Web page. The lines in a Web page are single-spaced by default, but you can easily change line spacing to double or 1.5 lines to allow extra space between every line. Sometimes, you’ll want to add space above and below certain paragraphs, such as for headlines or indented quotations to help set off the text.
Open and display the Web page you want to use.
Select the paragraph you want to change.
Click an indent button on the Formatting toolbar to apply the attribute that you want the selected text.
Timesaver Press Tab to increase the indent position.
You can change character spacing. Select the text you want to change, click the Format menu, click Font, click the Character Spacing tab, click the Spacing list arrow, click Normal, Expanded, or Condensed, click the Position list arrow, click a vertical position option, and then click OK.
Open and display the Web page you want to use.
Select the paragraph you want to change.
Click the Format menu, and then click Paragraph.

Type the space you want to add before (above) each selected paragraph (in points).
Type the space you want to add after (below) each selected paragraph (in points).
Click OK.
Text alignments vary the look of a Web page and help lead the user through the text. You can align text along the left or right margin, in the center, or equally across the page. Left-aligned text works well for body paragraphs in most cases, but other alignments vary the look of a page and help lead the reader through the text. Right-aligned text, which is even along the right margin and ragged at the left margin, is good for adding a date to a letter. Justified text spreads text evenly between the margins, creating a clean, professional look, often used in articles. Centered text is best for titles and headings. You can quickly change text alignment using alignment buttons on the Formatting toolbar.
Open and display the Web page you want to use.
Select the text you want to align.
Click an alignment button on the Formatting toolbar to apply the attribute that you want the selected text.
Expression Web comes with a host of symbols and special characters for every need.

You can insert a custom bullet. Produce a custom bullet, and then save it, preferably in either GIF (.gif) or JPEG (.jpg) format. In Expression Web, place the insertion point at the place where you want to start the list. Click the Format menu, click Bullets and Numbering, click the Picture Bullets tab, click the Specify picture option button, click Browse to locate your creation, double-click a picture, and then click OK. You can proceed as you would with any other bullet style.
You can use the Style list arrow to format a bullets or numbered list. Click the Style list arrow on the Common toolbar, and then click Unordered List <ul> or Ordered List <ol>. An unordered list is a bulleted list, while an ordered list is a numbered list.
In addition to the standard bulleted and numbered lists, you can also create indented lists, or sublists. A sublist creates multilevels in a list. You can create a sublist with a bulleted or numbered list. You use the Increase Indent button on the Formatting toolbar to create the multilevels. If you want to insert a line to create a sublist, you can press Tab or use the Increase Indent button.
Open and display the Web page you want to use.
Select the text you want to change into a sublist, or click where you want to start the sublist (press Enter to create a new line).

A style is a collection of formatting settings saved with a Web site or template that you can apply to text, graphics, and tables at any time. If you modify a style, you make the change once, but all text tagged with that style changes to reflect the new format. Expression Web provides you with Built-In Styles, or you can create your own User-Defined Styles. Both built-in and user-defined styles are available from the same style list while you edit a page. When you create a user-defined style, you can also create an embedded Cascading Style Sheet (CSS), which is style information that is applied to the open Web page.
Open and display the Web page you want to use.
Select the text you want to apply a style.
Click the Style list arrow on the Common toolbar.
Click a style from the drop-down list. The default styles include:
You can remove a style. Select the text, click the Style list arrow on the Common toolbar, and then click (None).
You can use the Styles list arrow on the Common toolbar to quickly format text as a heading or definition list. A heading provides structure for a Web page by providing visual indicator of what is important. The default styles include six different headings, labeled Heading1 <h1> through Heading6 <h6>. Heading1 is the largest size and Heading6 is the smallest size. If you have a list of definitions you want to include in a Web page, you can use the Define Term <dt> and Definition <dd> styles to format the information you want to provide.
Open and display the Web page you want to use.
Select the text you want to change into a heading or subheading.
Click the Style list arrow on the Common toolbar.

Suppose that you discover you have misspelled or want to change a word throughout an entire Web page. You do not need to read through the document to find every instance of the word and manually change it. The Find and Replace commands can do that for you. Expression Web can find every instance for you, and walk you through the Web site from page to page until all the corrections have been made. In addition to text, you can also find and replace code. You can search one or more Web page or an entire Web site. When you search multiple pages, the results appear in a Find task pane.

Using Expression Web, you can correct spelling errors on a Web site immediately, or create a task for each page with an error and correct them later. Begin by opening the page whose spelling you want to examine. If you commonly use words unique to a hobby or profession that would not appear in a normal dictionary, or are unlikely to be part of the common vernacular, consider adding them to your dictionary so that they will not repeatedly be called into question during spell checks.
Open and display the Web page you want to check, and then click where you want to start checking.
Click the Tools menu, point to Spelling, and then click Spelling.
The program begins scanning the pages for words that aren’t in its dictionary.
Click the suggested word or type the correct word, and then click Change. Click Change All to correct all instances of the word.
If the unrecognized word is correctly spelled but the program doesn’t know it (as with a name, for example), click Ignore to ignore this instance of the word, or click Ignore All to ignore all instances of this word.
Click Add to add this word to your custom dictionary.
When the spell checker reaches the end of the document, if it hasn’t searched the beginning, a prompt will ask if you want it to resume the search at the start of the document.
When you’re done, click OK.
If necessary, click the View menu, and then click Folder List to display the Folder List.

If you want to stop the spell check or it is done checking all the pages, click Back To List.
Click Cancel to close the Spelling dialog box.
You can add a task for misspelled words. By assigning spelling corrections to Tasks, you can come back and correct them at your convenience. Click the Add a Task for Each Page With Misspellings check box to select it in the Spelling dialog box.
Before you can use a custom dictionary, you need to enable it first. You can enable and manage custom dictionaries by using the Custom Dictionaries dialog box. In the dialog box, you can change the language associated with a custom dictionary, create a new custom dictionary, or add or remove an existing custom dictionary. If you need to manage dictionary content, you can also change the default custom dictionary to which the spelling checker adds words, as well as add, delete, or edit words. If you mistakenly type an obscene or embarrassing word, such as ass instead of ask, the spelling checker will not catch it because both words are spelled correctly. You can avoid this problem by using an exclusion dictionary. When you use a language for the first time, Expression Web automatically creates an exclusion dictionary. This dictionary forces the spelling checker to flag words you don’t want to use.
Click the Tools menu, point to Spelling, and then click Spelling Options.
Click Custom Dictionaries.
Select the check box next to CUSTOM.DIC (Default).

International Expression Web users can change the language that appears on their screens by changing the default language settings. Before you can use a different language, you need to install the Microsoft Expression Web Language Pack for the languages you want to use in a Web site. After you install a language, you can set the default language for a Web page, Web site, and a custom dictionary. If the text in your Web page is written in more than one language, you can designate the language of selected text so the spelling checker uses the right dictionary. However, the keyboard you use to enter text determines the language used by the spelling checker.
