view override CSS output

I have a bunch of LIT files that I am wanting to use on my PRS-505, on the whole around half of the files convert acceptibly and I am happy with the output, but the rest of them are all over the place, with linebreaks half way along the line

e.g.
Hello this is a test line and
this is the rest of the line.
Anyway this is a load of rubbish and I hope
this can be fixed.

and ropey paragraph layouts.

Now, I understand I can override the default layout via CSS which I am capable in, and I have used the p { text-indent: 0pt} command to test this, and it works well.

But on the whole I have no idea how my CSS override will effect the final outcome, it would be great to preview CSS changes on the fly. Is this possible? because I could fix the markup visually for each of my LIT files before I take the Epub conversion plunge.

Doing this by trial and error just seems mental for each file, since my source LIT books are layed out in different ways and need different customisation to make them readable as a epub ebook.

help, advice welcome. Thanks in advance
