CSS sneak peaker

I am not sure if this is a good idea but...

I was just thinking how useful a tool it would be if I could select
some bit of a web page in my browser and have it tell me exactly what
css has gone into styling that text.

So no matter where the styling info has come from, external style
sheets, or style="" it would "aggregate" to give just the final
elements used to display the text.

I thought of this as I am trying to steal ideas from people, and if I
could just select the text I like and say "what styled that?" it would
save me time :)

How much time would I save if I did not post on Usenet.... ;)

Wrong question, should be:
How much time would I have lost if I did not read posts on
Usenet.... ;-)


Still wrong question. Should be:

How many days does (2) outweigh (1)?

Where I gather (2) is the second question and (1) is the
first question :-)
Well, then you're absolutely right. That is the question.
But... I don't know the answer!

Ah nice, I actually use moz as my browser (tabbed browsing you know)
but have not really investigated its other features.... maybe i should
:)

The css on the fly tool looks excellent! Maybe I will give firebird a
go.

How many browsers can one machine take ;)

I didn't find what folder I should download it to, does anyone know?


It just runs from Mozilla Firebird, when I click on the link.
How many browsers can one machine take ;)


I've got six (IE6, NS7, NS4,Moz Firebird, O6, Moz1.4 all on W2k) and the
default browser war has ended


IE6, NS7.1, NS6.2, NS4.7, Moz Firebird, Moz 1.4, O7.1, O5, lynx, Emacs-W3,
Act-10, all on Win-XP. I make that 10 so far.

Anyone managed to install more than one IE version on the same machine?

Yes, I have heard that it is possible to run them whitout booting using
VMware or wine for linux, or by installing multible MS OSs in same
machine and booting to different versions.

I would be interested if someone would make some instructions on how to
do it with linux and wine

It was also possible to run two IEs by lots of hacking in some MS OS
prior IE5.

BTW, I used to have about 15 browser versions on my earlier system. (IE
was 2.0, that is best IE for Win version ever)
