It's Easy!

Alternate Version

Font tag: effect attribute

The effect attribute is proprietary for the WebTV/MSNTV browser, so pages tat use it will not validate

There are 3 values that you can use for
effect="?": emboss, shadow & relief.

Here is what they look like. I'm using a dark gray to show them against my black background.

<font effect="emboss">emboss</font>
looks like: emboss

<font effect="shadow">shadow</font>
looks like: shadow

<font effect="relief">relief</font>
looks like relief

Also, see MrsK's page on font effects for her perspective. She likes to match the font color to the bgcolor.

Happy coding!
