Animating elements of text-shadow with jQuery

Question

I was wondering if there was any way to, using jQuery, animate properties of text-shadow like size or colour.

It\'s annoying that there aren\'t individual properties

Answer 1

The only way I found that truly worked was creating a with the same text as the and overlaying it using absolute positioning, negative margins, and .fadeIn()/.fadeOut() or opacity animations. But even that was glitchy at best because of all the on the fly expanding of elements and the overlay was kind of 'off' looking at best.
