    Does anyone have any recommendations for good tools that help you deal with DIV's ?

    I'm switching to using CSS frameworks to simplify things, but still find them a total headache to get just right.

    I normally do everything in Notepad++, any tools of or online that can look
    at your code and present it's structure/behavior, where what is going on is more readily apparent.

    The Web Developer toolbar and Firebug extension for Firefox are must haves.

    Yep they are and I use them, what I was looking for was something akin to the "Information-Display Div Order" in the Developer toolbar, just with more info, possibly presented visually. Also if it could quickly present all the things that might be affecting a particular DIV with regard to alignments etc, etc

    Firebug's inspect mode is very useful for that sort of thing.

    Generally, I'd say web dev toolbar & firebug will deal with most things, maybe you just need to dig into them a little bit more.
