Anyone out there with experience in designing a site with Expression Web and then using it with CMSB?

Hi RapidWeb,
I haven't used Expression Web but as long as it lets you edit pages in "code view" where you can see and modify the HTML, and lets you insert PHP tags, you should be fine.
Almost all modern editors let you do this but some require you to set some options to allow php.
Start by including a simple tag in a .php page to see if it works such as:
<?php echo "Hello from PHP"; ?>
Save it as a .php file, upload it to your server, view it in your browser and view source. You shouldn't be able to see the <?php part. So long as your editor didn't turn the <?php into %lt;?php or something else you should be fine.
The best way would be to experiment and give it a try with CMS Builder.
Let us know what you find out.
Hope that helps.
