Expression Web and the annoying span lang
This has been annoying me for a while so now I found the trick let me share this :
I have Vista en-US, my keyboard is en-CA and Expression Web in english. Each time I write some text in an html page I get a <span lang="en-ca">...</span> inserted.Result: my pages are full of silly <span lang="en-ca">, and they are twice the size they should be!
Any "Auto insert language span" checkbox ??
No, that would be too easy!Here is what I found from a FrontPage MVP:
"To keep the <span lang="en-XX"> from being inserted into your html code.

Web Deployment Projects and Visual Studio 2008
I have been working a lot with Web Deployment Projects and even wrote articles on it, so I wanted to have a look at what comes with VS2008.
It appears that unlike what I thought, Web Deployment Projects will not be part of VS2008.According to the Web Development Tools Team's blog:
"We are planning to release and update of Web Deployment Projects for VS 2008 sometime shortly after VS2008 ships. At the moment we don't have anything available."
http://blogs.msdn.com/webdevtools/archive/2007/07/27/visual-studio-2008-beta-2-silverlight.aspxAccording to Scott Guthrie:
"They [Web Deployment Projects] will definitely work with VS 2008 at somepoint - although I suspect we need to release a new rev of them that registers on VS 2008."
http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2007/07/26/vs-2008-and-net-3-5-beta-2-released.aspx#3295301If you think Web Deployment Projects are important enough to be part of the final version of Visual Studio 2008 instead of being just an add-on you can vote for feature: "Include Web Deployment Projects in release of Visual Studio 2008" on Connect:

Cool tool: Windows Live Writer Beta 3
Live Writer beta 3 has shipped and... guess what, the bug with "Insert Picture" is finally fixed !!!!! That was long!
I was in touch with members of the dev team at Microsoft since both 2 previous versions, but it wasn't fix yet. So here we go, you can now insert pictures with accents in the path (like C:\users\Hélène\live.jpg), thanks for non-american users...Note that the installation delete my blogs configuration on my laptop :-( but it worked well on my desktop computer.
