I don't think anyone's mentioned Firebug yet, which must be a first! It's a 
Firefox plugin which is excellent as a debugging tool, a design tool, and a 
training tool for those new to CSS. Firebug will (to some extent) answer your 3 
questions - and many more - by providing visual feedback, in your browser, of 
how various styles affect the design.

I recommend it as an absolute must for any web design work.
