Hi Debbie, Almost everything what somebody can see through his browser, is public! Also linked stylesheets (or javascripts, or images). It's a bit off-topic to tell how, but when you know the easiest way, you have a marvellous tool for css-designing too. 1. The long way View sorce code, remark in the head: <link href="debscardsbasic.css" ...> and <style ...> @import "debscardsimport.css". Then go to browser, paste "http://www.drk-writing.com/debscards/debscardsbasic.css"; and "http://www.drk-writing.com/debscards/debscardsimport.css";. There they are! Downloaded page + downloaded stylesheets = local changing and testing possible (just pay attention to internal links). 2. The medium way Get Firefox <http://www.mozilla.com/> as browser, get Chris Pederick's FF Web Developer Extension <https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?application=firefox&category=Developer%20Tools&numpg=10&id=60>. In the new FF-toolbar, click "CSS" and then "View css". That opens a kind of webpage with a list of all used stylesheets and their content. Plus the links to get them (as above, but straightly clickable). 3. The short and easy use way: magic on screen! Follow step 2, but now click "CSS" and then "Edit CSS". That opens on your left hand a sidebar with directly the content of the stylesheet. If more, they are tabbed. And a little wonder: in the sidebar you can change things! Real time you see the changes in the panel of the openend page (even if it is not your own page!). That makes it very very easy to analyse: change and see if it works! You can combine that with viewing the source code in another opened FF-window: in sourcode you go to the wanted item, you see what the ID, class or container it regards. Go over to the stylesheet-sidebar, and look what is the meaning of the corresponding ID, class, container. Especially since I discovered the last possibilities, I could speed up my page-analyzing and correcting enormously! Can also be combined with the "Outline blocklevels" in the toolbar: you see immidiately where is what on the page, and where are the anomalies. And of course: can be rapidly combined with the outcome of a css- or html-check with the css-/html-validator.
