In Ie, How to Remove a Filter

In IE, how do I remove a filter?

The answer is to set the enabled property of the filter like so:

filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(enabled = false);

How do I reset or override IE CSS filters?

I've had some success by positioning the children absolute or relative. This didn't seem to work earlier though so it may break again once I get more complicated

I think once a parent has a filter applied all of it's children essentially become directx surfaces internally. You can still select text but it lags. I think text selection is a hack which makes each letter a seperate surface. It's a shitty mess which goes a long way to explaining why the browser in general and filters in particular are so buggy.

Filters, IE, body and fonts

That looks very much like a proprietary Microsoft filter. Unless you know that 99% of your website users use ie, don't use those filters. Of course, if you are using this in an ie-specific style-sheet, to complement another style-sheet for proper browsers, you can use that filter without ruining your market.

Either way, I would highly recommend not using an ie-specific filter (or anything ie-specific really). Instead you should recommend to your users subtly to change to a more compliant browser, with less security holes and privacy-concerning back doors.

IE css filter: adding black outline to text - how do I remove it?

It seems to be an issue with the rendering engine.

With a large enough font-size, I get no black outline.

Since there are no extra parameters for this filter (except one to disabled it), I guess you gotta live with it.
