I know it's easy to get the CSS that is applied to a single node in HTML, using tools like the Firebug extension for Firefox, etc.
But is there a way to see all the CSS that is in effect on an entire page, or a larger fragment of HTML?
Specifically, we are cleaning up our one extremely large CSS file into smaller modules and would like to find out what CSS is used on a certain page, so we can move all the non-used CSS to another module.
Thank you all! These are the various solutions I've looked at now from your recommendations (collected here for people with the same problem):
Dust-Me Selectors (Firefox Add-on)
This does exactly what I need. Lists used and unused CSS selectors (for the current page, or the entire site, after spidering), and can dump both lists as CSV text. Great.

WARI - Web Application Resource Inspector (Java tool)
Appears to only handle static code, not dynamically generated HTML as is present in most web applications that use ajax – which, unfortunately, makes it useless, at least for me

These are all cross-platform and free, except for TopStyle.
