Firefox and Chromium offer CSS and JavaScript viewing via Add-ons or
Plug-ins.

Chromium (Web Developer) lists the files one after another.
Firebug does the same under the HTML tab. It also has a CSS tab which
purports to show the CSS that it is using. You would expect this to
show the combination of all loaded style sheets but it seems to show
the FIRST one only -surely shome mishtake!

I am not going to argue with a developer:)
