I’ve looked high and low and it seems like an easy enough question.
I am using CSS3 shadows (box and text) and it really destroys any readability in IE, so I want to just remove all shadows in this style sheet. I have a conditional style sheet set up for IE8 and below.
I’ve tried this:
text-shadow: 0px 0px 0px transparent;
filter: dropshadow(color=transparent, offx=0, offy=0);
But to no avail. Any ideas?
ie8 doesn’t understand what text-shadow is, so overriding it is pointless. your readability issues could stem from any number of things: font-stack, cleartype, etc. without more info, pretty hard to tell.
