thanks for the reply.

what I mean when I say "go there" is this.

For example, i have selected a code that needs changing on the left
side.
On the right side, it is shwoing me that that code is in style1.css -
line 3 (just an example.
When I go into my server files and hunt down this "style1.css" file,
it looks nothing at all like
the one  in Firebug, and there is nothing on line 3 resembling the
code that was highlited in firebug.

I hope this makes more sense.
Thanks again.
