# Apply Multiple Box Shadows To Single Element
|
|
|
|
Multiple box-shadows can be applied to the same DOM element. The `box-shadow`
|
|
property accepts a comma-separated list of `box-shadow` directives.
|
|
|
|
Here is a pretty nasty looking example from the [MDN
|
|
docs](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/box-shadow#Syntax):
|
|
|
|
```css
|
|
/* Any number of shadows, separated by commas */
|
|
box-shadow: 3px 3px red, -1em 0 0.4em olive;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Here is a more practical [example](https://codepen.io/jbranchaud/pen/GRReaxo):
|
|
|
|
```css
|
|
box-shadow: 0 0 0 2px #4caf50,
|
|
0 3px 5px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This gives the effect of a solid border with some shadow for depth.
|
|
|
|
Multiple shadows has [pretty robust browser
|
|
support](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/box-shadow#Browser_compatibility).
