When editing an injected CSS file, what does the "Preprocess CSS" checkbox do?

Can you add a sentence to the editing page to explain its function?

Same question.

I was curious & had been fiddling with this myself. 'Preprocess CSS' forces the module to try to integrate the code with the theme CSS. So you can hardly ever imagine a circumstance where you wouldn't want to select that option.

I just activated the preprocess tickbox and my theme just broke down. So, I had to leave it as unchecked and my theme (orange) was back on.

Depending on what version of Drupal 6 you're using (including the latest) there are always open issues about CSS preprocessing, so it might not be css_injector. Try with some very simple css and then look at what actually gets delivered to the page.
