With plenty of affordable products in their library to help out those who are serious about Web development, Blumentals Software now has an even more impressively priced product: a package of CSS tools that's absolutely free. The freeware CSS Toolbox includes a handful of helpful tools that should save time for anyone who works with CSS.

The CSS Editor comes with syntax highlighting and simplified auto-complete; the CSS Formatter/Beautifier helps you reformat and prettify your code; the CSS Checker tracks down errors and makes your code old-browser-friendly; and the CSS Compressor makes your code load faster, reducing its size by up to 70 percent. However, if you're a CSS newbie, you might want to read a few online tutorials before diving in. Only a small amount of knowledge is required before you get started, but that modicum will reap big dividends.

Anyone who wants to clean up or check their CSS should check out this set of useful tools.

Seth peers into the deep, dark corners of software so that you don't have to. He has yet to suffer a single nightmare about OS/2. You can follow him on Twitter.

Let me use some of my valuable time and try to be helpful by providing a "duh" moment for you. Writing software highlights is terrific, but when I have to look up the software afterwards because no link was provided to the download page, then this kind of post will be the end result. Enough said.

Let me use some of my valuable time to try to be helpful by providing YOU with a "duh" moment. At the very top of the page the words "CSS Toolbox" in the second sentence are linked. Look around a little before you send comments like this. They always link to the download within the first sentence or two. Enough said.

Your 'duh' moment comes in the fact that you overlooked the highlighted link on the 3rd line of the first paragraph. Look, takes you right to the download page at Downloads.com...'DUH'...lol..
