ASP.NET MVC (RAZOR) with Expression Web 4, or at least the option to edit the file?

I have been trying to use expression web lately for editing my HTML files etc...

I.e. use visual studio 2010 for coding and expression web for design.

I thought this was what they were meant for?

Anyway the new extension CSHTML (razor) when i try and open it in expression web it automatically opens it in visual studio.

I am not expecting FULL razor support in expression web but at least the possibility of designing the html embedded in the CSHTML file so i can assign CSS and things like that

Solution

  • For what it's worth, I use expression to get the gist of the markup and then copy that HTML/CSS over to Visual Studio into my views. Even if Expression can take care of this, it just doesn't seem to do it very well.
