How is this drop shadow acheived?

I like the drop shadow effect on this site that gives the impression of
a piece of paper:

http://www.dacvs.org.uk/

I have looked at the style sheet and the html but cannot figure it out.
Could someone please explain, with reference to the relevant bit in the
style sheet.

Thanks.

Just a fixed width background image:
style.css (line 19)
#wrap {
background:transparent url(images/bg2.gif) repeat-y scroll 0%;
margin:0pt auto;
padding:5px 0pt;
width:807px;
}

When inspecting an existing website I can recommend Firebug in FF, it took
me about 4 seconds total finding this out.

Right, I see now thanks. Firebug looks great, I'll install it.
