The problem is that when the trigger updates the panel, IE8 takes the focus from any other program that I'm using. Does anyone have a solution for this? This happens in I...

Here's my challenge. I need to have paragraph text be readable on mild image backgrounds. This is easily achieved with CSS3's text-shadow. Unfortunately IE does not support this.
