CSS text-shadow Property
The CSS text-shadow property is used to render shadows for text. Each distinct shadow gets 2 - 4 values and an optional "inset" keyword. You can create a comma separated list of distinct shadows that will apply under the same text in order to create different looking effects.
NOTE: Not all browsers adhere to this property yet. Due to this discrepency try not to rely on the shadow effects to make your text more readable, for instance when using light text on a light background. In other words just think about how your text will look if the shadows do not render, will the text still be easy to read?
CSS CODE EXAMPLE
<style type="text/css">
#myDiv {
    background: #EBB7FF;
    padding: 10px;
    font-family: "Arial Black", Gadget, Arial, serif;
    font-size: 18px;
    color: #D634FE;
    text-shadow: 1px 2px 1px #000, 2px 4px 4px #999;
}
</style>
<div id="myDiv">
