With the soon-released FireFox 3.1, three of the four major browsers support text-shadow. That leaves just Internet Explorer with the lack of text-shadow. I have already taken care of that problem, but decided to wrap it up in a nice automated jQuery plugin. One handy little thing of Internet Explorer is that it also gives you access to CSS declarations it does not understand, so we can simply request the text-shadow value of a given element and process that. For a more in-depth explanation of how the technique itself works, please read the original article. It should work in Internet Explorer 5.5 to Internet Explorer 8, since I also added the new Internet Explorer 8 version of filter, -ms-filter.
