as far as I know every single element in drupal's got a class and ID(sometimes). if there's too many calls to css files in source code which may not be needed, go to admin/settings/performance-->enable Optimize CSS files. if this options is on all the css files references will be generated dynamically to a folder like 'files/css' I guess. if It's disabled you can easily figure out where your own class is - using firebug. There will be still some classes which are generating automatically, like first-child,...
Just disable the option when you're developing, and enable it when you're done to improve performance.

Hello and greetings,
I am trying to understand the internals of themes and have run into a few questions that seem to be related. I was hoping to find some enlightenment from the list. TIA for any replies.
I found references to several classes that I can not find in any .css files on the order of: <li class="menu-114">. While I was trying to find the .css file that contained these class definitions, I notice that in the page source, in the marinelli theme for example, many calls to css file that have references attached to them, i.e. links.css?lgkgm7. Can someone explain what this means? I think the menu-xxx classes are being generated dynamically but I do not understand where that is happening and it appears to be inconsistent whether it is defined as a class or as an id in the page code dumps that I have examined.
Appreciate your attention,
Kindest regards, Michael
