I had upgraded the firefox version from 12 to 13. I observed that for one of my sites the wrapper for which shadow property was applied doesn't display in FF13. It was working perfect in FF12 and the lower versions. Plz help!!!!!

Were you using -moz-box-shadow? Surprise! You now need to drop the -moz prefix and use just box-shadow as described in this page: box-shadow - MDN. Actually, if you want the shadow in Firefox 3.5-3.6, you need both properties. Sigh.
