Will Jquery ui css styles overwrite my css styles?

Question

I downloaded the Jquery ui along with one of there pre-made css styles. I put all of this in a master page where I have some of my styles. Will the jquery styles, for example, the ones for anchor tags overwrite the styles I have for my anchor tags. I basically just want the jquery styles to be just for the jquery ui components. Is there a way to prevent style overwriting?

If you look at the .css file for jquery ui, you will find that it does not override any standard tags. All classes are prefixed with ui-. It is likely that this overriding behavior is caused by something else.

To debug css precedence issues, Firebug or the IE developer toolbar are very useful. You may wish to use one of these tools to determine the source of your problem.
