I'm trying to fix this bug for LONG... And I couldn't find a fix yet... The
problem is: When I use a table style with a specific filtet, the text inside the
table simply DISAPEAR... If you want me to be more specific, these two are the
filters I use and the text simply disapear (if I use Internet Explorer, it don't
disapear...) 

Here they are:
<table STYLE="filter:glow(color=red, strength=10)">
<table STYLE="filter:shadow(color=#800000, strength=12)">

The colors up there is only an example, if I change it don't mean nothing...
Please, fix my bug... I really need it...

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter Firebird.
2. Enter in "http://www.geocities.com/galera2006/viajar.htm"
3. Look to the top of the site... There is supposed to be a TITLE...

Actual Results:  
The title on my page don't appear... Because Firebird don't know how to do the
table filter...

Expected Results:  
Respect my filter... See the same site in Internet Explorer... That's what I
want it to do, okay?
The filter: property in the page is something Microsoft came up with for
Internet Explorer.  It is not a part of any CSS standard in existence: not 1, 2,
2.1, or even the work-in progress CSS3.  The only browser that renders it is
Internet Explorer (Opera might, too, but I don't know for sure).  Mozilla's
rendering engine will in general only parse standard HTML, XHTML, and CSS.  As
filter: is non-standard, Mozilla will not process it.

If you want your text to glow, there is a standards-based way to do this. 
Simply use the text-shadow property found in the CSS 2 standard:

http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/text.html#propdef-text-shadow

Unfortunately, Mozilla doesn't support text-shadow yet (bug 10713).  However,
standards-based browsers that support CSS2 should support this, so you'll reach
more of your audience that way, and you'll do it in a way that doesn't depend on
one browser's additions to CSS.
