css - How to create a inset box-shadow only on one side?

Question

Is it possible to somehow only have inset box-shadow on one side of a div ? Note that I'm talking about an inset box-shadow here, not the normal outer box-shadow.

For example, in the following JSFiddle, you'll see that the inset shadow appears on all 4 sides, in varying degrees.

How do I get it to ONLY show at the top ? Or at most ONLY at top and bottom ?

JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/ahmadka/KFrun/

.box {
  -webkit-box-shadow: inset 0px 5px 10px 1px #000000;
  box-shadow: inset 0px 5px 10px 1px #000000;
}

.text {
  padding: 20px;
}

<div class="box">
  <div class="text">
    Lorem ipsum ....
  </div>
</div>

This is what you are looking for. It has examples for each side you want with a shadow.

.top-box
{
    box-shadow: inset 0 7px 9px -7px rgba(0,0,0,0.4);
}
.left-box
{
    box-shadow: inset 7px 0 9px -7px rgba(0,0,0,0.4);
}
.right-box
{
    box-shadow: inset -7px 0 9px -7px rgba(0,0,0,0.4);
}
.bottom-box
{
    box-shadow: inset 0 -7px 9px -7px rgba(0,0,0,0.4);
}

See the snippet for more examples:

body {
    background-color:#0074D9;
}
div {
    background-color:#ffffff;
    padding:20px;
    margin-top:10px;
}
.top-box {
    box-shadow: inset 0 7px 9px -7px rgba(0,0,0,0.7);
}
.left-box {
    box-shadow: inset 7px 0 9px -7px rgba(0,0,0,0.7);
}
.right-box {
    box-shadow: inset -7px 0 9px -7px rgba(0,0,0,0.7);
}
.bottom-box {
    box-shadow: inset 0 -7px 9px -7px rgba(0,0,0,0.7);
}
.top-gradient-box {
    background: linear-gradient(to bottom, #999 0, #ffffff 7px, #ffffff 100%);
}
.left-gradient-box {
    background: linear-gradient(to right, #999 0, #ffffff 7px, #ffffff 100%);
}
.right-gradient-box {
    background: linear-gradient(to left, #999 0, #ffffff 7px, #ffffff 100%);
}
.bottom-gradient-box {
    background: linear-gradient(to top, #999 0, #ffffff 7px, #ffffff 100%);
}

<div class="top-box">
        This area has a top shadow using box-shadow
</div>

<div class="left-box">
        This area has a left shadow using box-shadow
</div>

<div class="right-box">
        This area has a right shadow using box-shadow
</div>

<div class="bottom-box">
        This area has a bottom shadow using box-shadow
</div>

<div class="top-gradient-box">
        This area has a top shadow using gradients
</div>
<div class="left-gradient-box">
        This area has a left shadow using gradients
</div>
<div class="right-gradient-box">
        This area has a right shadow using gradients
</div>
<div class="bottom-gradient-box">
        This area has a bottom shadow using gradients
</div>
