What are some proven, efficient methods for finding mistakes made in code from
one version to the next? Top of mind I think of having the 2 css documents open
side by side, and looking line by line.
Is that the best way or are there other, more efficient methods of sniffing out
the offending code?
Thank you!
I don't know. I always start with validation, it's great at catching my
typos.
There are many diff programs used by programmers to compare programing
code. They all work fine on CSS and HTML files. They highlight
differences for you, most let you move quickly from one difference to
the next, even let you copy lines from one file to the other. I use
Linux, the kdiff tool is great for this kind of stuff.
Finally, if you have CSS files with many identical sections being
repeated in each, maybe it's time to move those repeated sections into
CSS files of their own and include them?
