Demo: Background Gradients

This box has no gradients

This will yield a radial gradient with an apparent specular highlight

This yields a linear gradient spanning from $start to $end coordinates

This yields a gradient starting at the top with #fff, ending in #aaa

Same as above but with a #ccc at the halfway point

Same as the first example but with #ccc at the 30% from the top, and #bbb at 70% from the top

This yields a horizontal linear gradient spanning from left to right.

This gradient has SVG support enabled for opera and IE9.
