I’d like to outline the text in my CSS menus to make the letters stand out a little more. I’ve not found a way to add an outline to text. Am I missing something?

You can do this by adding a tight text-shadow to the characters. Set the offsets both to 0, and then use the shadow-size as a small, positive number. Your outline not be sharp, and in my tests here, it needs to be fiddled with with respect to color and radius depending on the text color and the font size. Setting it to a 1px size makes the shadow quite harsh, and it can pixelate quite a bit, too.

There are some things you can use with custom CSS-- the caveat is the
user’s browser must support the code.

Thank you both. I’m still a newbie with Freeway, so there is much to learn. I appreciate your patient help.
