Answer 1

I know that there was a hotfix you had to install for VS2008 to get intellisense to work with jQuery. The hotfix allows VS to parse the VS-annotated versions of the files for intellisense hints. I don't think that a similar hotfix exists for Expression Web.

Quoting from the link:

This hotfix only applies to the products Visual Studio 2008 SP1 and Visual Web Developer 2008 Express edition with SP1. If you try to apply it to other versions of Visual Studio or Visual Web Developer Express, you will get an error dialog box with the message.
