Wow that is a freaking amazing solution. Not only getting the right
css portion, but in showing me the way you use import then restyle on
the page. Very cool.

I will look into ClueTip. I like the way this coder set things up but
he did not do a good job laying out how to use it, and compared to
other plugin specialists here, he did not set up the plugin for
automatic use, I had to play with before I saw how it really worked.
Maybe ClueTip did a better job of documentation, because for me that
is as important as the plugin itself.

Oh and I am still curious how people deal with battling CSS. Firebug?
