There are development plugins for both IE7 and FireFox that will do this. For IE, I use the IE Developer Toolbar but I found that it makes IE very slow and prone to crashing when it is enabled. I don't do much CSS debugging in FireFox but DOM Inspector does provide some help with CSS. I think there are better plugins for CSS debugging out there.

Subject: [WEB400] css name clashes
Anyone have a tool that detects css name clashes? I did some poking
around the web and couldn't find anything immediately useful.
What I have is a situation where a particular element isn't displaying
correctly on a page. The page was an agglomeration of several pages,
each of which had a fully functioning example when run separately. When
I added all these stand alone elements to a single page, a couple of
elements no longer display correctly.
I will use a process of elimination to figure out which .css files has
the conflict but it would be pretty handy to have something that would
read through a series of css references on a page and tell you if you
have definitions in more than one file that could cause conflicts.
