Answer 1

CSS3 text gradients that is only supported by Webkit based browsers like Chrome and Safari. I have used 3 different methods. check this fiddle first http://jsfiddle.net/sarfarazdesigner/pvU7r/ Try this

.article{
  background: -webkit-linear-gradient(#eee, #333);
  -webkit-background-clip: text;
  -webkit-text-fill-color: transparent;
}

this is working fine in chrome don't know how other browser react. Reference taken from http://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/gradient-text/
