Firefox 3 isn’t quite out yet, but already there are some exciting plans for CSS implementation in future versions.

FF3.1 should see all the selectors (test them here), @media queries, text-shadow, font-stretch, and downloadable web fonts with @font-face; FF4 should add calc() and attr() values, along with the Animation and Transitions modules proposed by the Webkit team.

You can see a list of other planned implementations on the Mozilla Wiki.

You can skip to the end and leave a response.

  FF 3.1 already has text-shadow support (I’ve just checked with the latest nightly). You can now update the “Preview” page.

  Multiple shadows also works in Firefox, you might want to mention that on your example page.

  Thanks for the feedback, guys; both pages are updated now. I’ve added an @font-face preview, too.
