Can anyone recommend a good free visual CSS analysis tool? I have very limited CSS experience and would like to make my right sidebar on Brotherhood of the Bean look like my left sidebar.

For some reason, I seem to be CSS impaired. Any advice is appreciated. To see the css in question click this link:

When I'm just playing around trying to see how things look, I use Firebug.

You can alter the page without having to make any real changes so it's great for hacking around CSS.

I was going to suggest the WebDeveloper extension for Firefox, since that's what I use and I'm pretty happy with it, but I may go check out Firebug myself...

Thanks Oli!

Firebug is pretty cool. I used to use the developer add on for firefox but have recently been shown Firebug and it is pretty good.

For actual coding though i use Coda on my G5. The program is an all in one solution for coding, previewing, ftp, terminal bash. It's CSS features offer the option of either just hand coding as you would in a textpad or using the Coda menu for choosing CSS options from drop down lists etc. It is my most important program for developing and i couldnt cope without it. :-D
