Hello, I want to realize a website attracting with a visual gimmick: Selected elements have reactive shadows based on CSS3.

Is it possible to realize this kind of dynamic and reactive shadow with CSS3 or do I need to use both CSS3 and JavaScript? For instance, moving the cursor would change a div's text-shadow values from
div { text-shadow: 5px 5px 10px #000000; }to
div { text-shadow: 2px 10px 10px #000000; }. Any idea how to realize this?
