Found from a link here, CSS Tweak is:

Quote
...a web based CSS optimization tool. It will take any CSS file and optimize the syntax, grouping your style declarations into shorthand where possible. It can also remove comments, and strip whitespace for maximum compression.

The one thing that makes it different from other tools however, is you can also stop it from altering your syntactical layout at all. Instead it will go through and stick with the layout you have defined, and clean up any areas that are incorrectly formatted.[/url]

I'm old fashoined, like to ensure i kno what's being written in the coding, not what a program generates, as it's not always clean, or valid.

I am with Gio on this one and although StyleMaster has an optimise option I prefer to be able to read my css with ease 2 years later.  G.T.'s giggle smiley

I think you would have to keep a local uncompressed copy anyway. Maybe just upload it and not link to it. Might get a little complex, though. Darkside's sad smiley

That's what I've done if I've ever optimised any of mine. I'm with Caz on needing to be able to read it (I like my spaces and stuff in my CSS), but where file weight has been an issue and I've compressed it I've kept the original version locally.

Umm I always optimise my stylesheets, but only:
Compress colors
Compress font-weight
Remove last ;

All that are very safe changes
