Inner shadow to div in IE

I created an inner shadow for a div as in the following css code:

.gil_Help_ContentArea {
    width: 300px;
    height: 200px;
    margin: 5px 0 0 0;
    padding: 0px; 
    background-color: #fff;
    box-shadow: inset 0 0 10px #ccc;
    -moz-box-shadow: inset 0 0 10px #ccc;
    -webkit-box-shadow: inset 0 0 10px #ccc;
    -khtml-box-shadow: inset 0 0 10px #ccc;
}

It is working fine with browsers other than IE, but I want the same effect in IE. If anybody is willing to help, it will be appreciated.

You can check the effect at http://jsfiddle.net/shabirgilkar/Mu9jL/.

At current (November 2011) it does not appear that anyone has developed a polyfill for IE8 or IE7 to do what you want. See, for instance, CSS3PIE (https://github.com/lojjic/PIE/issues/3) which has box-shadow support but does not support the inset flag.

Your best (only?) option is to create an image to use as the background for the element. This is, obviously, not a great solution.

(Also, to help you and others find other useful polyfills, here's a possibly useful link: https://github.com/Modernizr/Modernizr/wiki/HTML5-Cross-Browser-Polyfills)

IE 8 and below don't support the box-shadow CSS3 property, but it might be possible to get it to work. You should check these articles out...

I would recommend using images for IE 8 and below (use conditional stylesheets).

I came up with a crappy solution, but it works in IE 8, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Opera. Check out the fiddle...

I hope this helps.

Select box shadow

-webkit-box-shadow: inset 0px 0px 15px #313199;
-moz-box-shadow: inset 0px 0px 15px #313199;
box-shadow: inset 0px 0px 15px #313199;

What version of IE are you referring to? The different versions are vastly different.
