Blur effect on a div element

I think this is what you are looking for? If you are looking to add a blur effect to a div element, you can do this directly through CSS Filters– See fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/ayhj9vb0/

div {
    -webkit-filter: blur(5px);
    -moz-filter: blur(5px);
    -o-filter: blur(5px);
    -ms-filter: blur(5px);
    filter: blur(5px);
    width: 100px;
    height: 100px;
    background-color: #ccc;
}
