Title : Text shadow

BB Code Tag Name : shadow

Replacement :

<span style="text-shadow: {option}px {option}px {option}px #a4a1a1;">{param}</span>

Example : [shadow=2]text shadow[/shadow]

Description : This bb code is used to give a shadow to text.

Use {option} : Yes

Button Image :

You can set the shadow distance by adjusting the value inside the first tag. For eg this [shadow=2] will give a shadow of 2 pixels.

To change the colour of the shadow replace the : #a4a1a1 with any colour that you want.

Please mark installed if used.

Just rated, thank you

What can we do if Microsoft cannot make a browser which supports CSS ? Anyway not all sites have users which primarily use IE. On my site 70% of the users use Firefox for instance.

Besides it wouldn't hurt to use this affect. At least the users of other CSS compliant browsers will have a better visual experience on your site.
