When you get these excellent tools, you will have drop down menu
items at top. To do what you mentioned first, you would choose
the CSS one and Edit CSS, this will bring up the CSS for a
webpage you are displaying in the right frame. Editing the CSS
makes for "live" changes in what you see to the right. Don't
expect it to be a main way to develop things (there are various
irritations) but it is a great way to trouble shoot a few things,
even get some ideas going.
The thing I find a little peculiar is how they stick Edit HTML in
the Miscellanous drop down. Does not seem so Misc to me! I
suppose i may as well mention that it would be great if it gets
to the satge where you can have both the Edit HTML and CSS open
in their own cols or frames and the whole show be live. Sometimes
one wants to tweak both quickly there and then...
But good luck, you will benefit from these great tools.
