I've been waiting a long time for the CSS text-shadow to be supported by Mozilla Firefox. Now with Firefox 3.5, text-shadow effects can be applied to live text just as in Internet Explorer and Safari. Finally, all 3 of the top browsers support this CSS property, no longer needing to hack or create a work-around for the Firefox browser.

To see an example of the text-shadow CSS, just look at the text within the header of this page. If you are using Firefox 3.5 you can see the gray shadow I have applied to the page title text shown above.

Here is an example of the CSS script that applies that effect:

h1 {
text-shadow:#666666 5px 5px 5px;/*--Firefox & Safari--*/
filter: Shadow(Color=#666666, Direction=135, Strength=5)/*--IE--*/
}
