That's the nature of having no standards in this stuff.

With the Firefox part it's not a problem as you can use the span tag.

However, in IE, you have to put the code into a table, P, H1 (or 2 etc) or div tag, which forces it to be on it's own line.

You'll notice that the part in the code for FF I used H1 tags so it will be more closely to what you'd get in IE.

You can remove the H1 tags in the FF portion of the code and it will be what you're after....however, those who use IE will be forced to see the results on it's own line and other areas where you use the code will be different for IE and FF users.

One of these days they'll get their acts together and start standardizing these things....but I'm not holding my breathe.

The method I used to get the code to work with both browsers was the best to reconcile the differences between the two ways they implement glowing text. (actually FF doesn't have a "glow" feature and you have to use a trick of shadowing the text to create the same effect that IE does naturally).

Sorry about this...it's the nature of the browser wars that you get this nonsense.
