why does the dropshadow remains completely black

Hi,

I'm trying to use class.dropshadow.php in connection with the CMS ModX.
Everything works fine except the dropshadow. It only generates a black frame.
My first guess was that something had gone wrong with the default background-color "FFFFFF". If somehow the background color becomes black it would make sense that I couldn't see the shadow effect. But actually nothing happens even though I try to change the default value from "FFFFFF" to forinstance "FFFF33", so maybe the problem is a totally different one.
If anyone has any idear of what could cause the problem I would be very happy.

Hi,

hope you resolved the trouble. Maybe a browser uncompatibility with png alpha transparency.
I just finished a snippet which implements dropshadow php class in modx.
It's very simple. I made it for a personal use, mayube associated with other scripts. I am going to share it as soon as I find a minute.
I found that maxigallery implements the same dropshadow javascript too. I started a new snippet just because I needed just a brick of the wall.
Tell me if you need it.
