My first post to the list and hopefully a helpful one.

Its a good question and one I personally haven't found a really elegant
solution for!

I tend to use FF and the Web Developer Toolbar extension
(http://chrispederick.com/work/web-developer/) which allows you to View CSS
or indeed edit the CSS live through its CSS menu.

Alternatively I view source of the page find the style sheet declaration and
then append that to the URL of the page this normally serves up the plain
text CSS file.

The toolbar is far the simplest way but offers no code highlighting etc not
a problem for some but I'm a sucker for a bit of highlighting!
