Yes, I was trying to find something before I asked.

I am working on my website and I decided to use text-shadow, t\it sounds simple but it isn’t.

IE doesnt support the text-shadow property, but I want to make it cross browser so I want a jQuery plugin, but I couldn’t find a working plugin that supports IE. I would like it to support IE 6+, but I can compromise and have it only support IE 7+.

I don’t want a plugin that duplicates the text. For example, when you highlight the text, copy and paste you see the same word/sentence many times. I want a plugin that can make it with layers (z-index) and will work in any condition.

Thanks.

    Some info on mimicking text-shadow in a slightly simpler way in IE can be found at http://www.impressivewebs.com/css3-text-shadow-ie/

    However, as they say:

    But in many cases, you’d be better off not using a filter or any kind
    of script. Let IE see a lesser experience, and save the good stuff for
    the better browsers.

    Also, even though the IE filters are not loading up any extra scripts,
    they still have performance issues and can slow the rendering of the
    page. So again, if you can avoid them, then do so.
