Other browsers tested: Chrome 35.0.1916.153 m: FAIL Firefox 30.0: OK IE 11.0.9: OK Opera 12.17: OK What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Nest two depths of `div` HTML element twice (one after the other). 2. Apply the same `box-shadow` CSS property without defining the color on the last depth in each one. 3. Apply the `color` CSS property on the first depth with a different value for each one. What is the expected result? If it is absent, the color of the shadow should be taken from the `color` CSS property as it is defined in the CSS3 specification of W3C. http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-background/#shadow-color What happens instead? The color of the shadow does not change and is identical to the color of the first drop-shadow painted in the page. It seems that the problem does not exist/happen when the `color` and `box-shadow` CSS properties are applied at the same time on the same HTML element. I have opened the same issue for Blink here: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=388209

Pretty sure we have older bugs on this.
We don't see an issue with this test case at present, though it may have changed in the many years since you filed this. If you believe there is still an issue, could you please REOPEN this bug with a small test case illustrating the issue?
