I was referring to box-shadow with CSS3 animations.
http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-animations/
Maybe my understanding is old, but I thought the spec doesn't allow animation of box-shadow but does allow animation of color.
(I probably should have been clearer that by 'animate' I was referring to CSS3 animations, as opposed to JScript simulation.)

I don't understand. What woulnt be supported at all? What's wrong with the following line (altered):
> var div = document.getElementsByTagName("div")[0];
>   div.style.boxShadow = "0 0 50px rgb(" + i + "," + i + "," + i + ")";

Sure it is SLIGHTLY longer, but seems a better choice anyway than requiring something in the source (your span) to recolor the text.
