A cascade is a series of waterfalls. In each CSS step (or waterfall) rules can be set. If there is a clash between a rule at the top and an equivalent rule in a later stylesheet, or even later in the same stylesheet, the latter one wins. Thats the basis. Then you have four factors involved which should be taken into account in the following order: weight, origin, specificity, sort order.
