Hi Honza,

Yes, that's pretty clear.

So how can one reverse engineer a site?

I have all the files for open source projects and templates like Wordpress, 
Joomla, OS Class ect....so access to all the files but I didn't design the 
cms, so is there a tool out there so this can be done?

When a CMS has 10 000 files...what .css file could I be dealing with ! ;)  
Maybe I'm asking the impossible?
