Calibre ebook-viewer and Sigil (even Firefox) has a HTML 'Inspector' built in). Right click. One of the panels will show 'computed values' (after all the inheritance)
Thanks, ducks! I am definitely in that reverse engineering phase. I haven't tried Sigil yet. Will try to inspect in calibre's viewer. That could save some back-and-forth.
