Code Snippet

Gradient Text

This is WebKit only, but is the cleanest way to accomplish it as the text remains editable and selectable web text.

h1 {
  font-size: 72px;
  background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, from(#eee), to(#333));
  -webkit-background-clip: text;
  -webkit-text-fill-color: transparent;
}
