Hi Philippe,
I need it to be supported by all browsers and old ones too, so my question
really is do i need to use images to accomplish this?

CSS3 box-shadow
http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-background/#the-box-shadow
(not supported by IE 8 and older)
IE5.5 and up support a proprietary DropShadow filter, technically,
this is more complex, but not an image. Does that fit your
requirements?
Anyhow, I'd vote for css3 and a degradation in IE. (Or, no shadow for
the base and progressively enhance it with CSS3)

You're comparing apples and oranges. Windows (and XP especially) and Linux, or

You need to float the last li, not the last a. And the text of the
last menu item *is* larger than the rest.

Why going through so many elements? It can't be good regarding performance
