Good Morning Martin,

Thank you for the clarification.

For CSS3 browsers I'll try to go with a box shadow decorator assigned to 
the decorator attribute without assigning shadow attribute.

For non CSS3 browsers (IE8 and lower :-( urgh) I consider dropping the 
glow effect for performance reasons.

How do non CSS3 border shadow browsers react? Is the additional shadow 
decorator simply ignored?

Regards
Dietrich
