A better advice may be to use a real Version Control System, for your
HTML pages and your CSS stylesheets. A version number does not tell
much ("What is version 567?" "When did I change the color scheme?"). A
VCS is much more powerful (for instance, you can attach a text to each
change, the date is automatically set, etc).
Software like Subversion or darcs work on MacOS X.

While it is much simpler (and cleaner!) to use a browser extension
such as Firefox's WebDeveloper (with its Outline function).
