I have built a graphic in Inkscape for use on a web page, but I cannot get it to export properly. The main part of the graphic exports fine, as does the gradient, but the blurred 'shadow' just comes out as a solid colour, not blurred in any way.
Are you trying to view the PNG in Internet Explorer? It's important to note that IE does not support alpha transparency in PNGs properly. Your choices are:
1. export the PNG against a solid background
2. use the IE-specific AlphaImageLoader:

As a rule, if something doesn't work right in IE, try it in Firefox. Assuming your HTML is valid and so forth, it's probably an IE bug.
As an aside- the new gradient edit on page is awesome but how do you change from a linear to a radial gradient without using the stroke/fill colours dialog which you are discussing removing?
That should be possible from the gradient toolbar (eventually, if it isn't yet).
