Hi guys,

    Also you can try Stylus Studio:

http://www.sonicsoftware.com/products/sonic_stylus_studio/index.ssp

    One of the cool things about this is a "Back-map stack" which comes up
to show you what part of the stylesheet created a particular line of output
when you click on a line of output in the output preview.  Unfortunately,
it's not free.......

And feel the water rise around me
Drown the beat of time
Let my senses fall away
I can see much clearer now,
I'm blind.
Find all you need in your mind
