Comments
#1
http://plugins.jquery.com/project/dimensions
going to try 1.2.0 Recommended for 1.2.x
#2
I tried using this version of dimensions, but still the module says it cannot be located. The Dropshadow pages http://plugins.jquery.com/project/DropShadow and http://eyebulb.com/dropshadow/ don't reference the need for the dimensions plugin. Perhaps it is not required anymore?
I know I'm using this module correctly because Curvy Corners works great!
#3
The dimension plugin is now included in jQuery. See the comments in the non-minified version of jQuery.
The quick way to solve the issue is to create an empty text file named jquery.dimensions.min.js in the jquery_plugins folder.
#4
As of jQuery 1.2.6 the dimensions plugin is included in core (see http://docs.jquery.com/Plugins/dimensions).
As such, I propose patching the module to check for 1.2.6 or if the dimensions plugin is available.
#5
The URL provided in the docs: http://eyebulb.com/dropshadow/ seems to be defunct. One which does seem to work is: http://plugins.jquery.com/project/dimensions though according to the comments above this may be a moot point anyways.

Whoopsie!! You want orange juice? Sure - here's an apple!
I'm low on caffeine at the moment...
Here's the deal: in the docs it tells us to get the Dimensions plugin from the defunct DropShadow location.. do you follow me?
f) Dimensions plugin: download from http://eyebulb.com/dropshadow/ (not the plugins.jquery.com project page)
So... as of this writing...
1: The Dimensions plugin can be located at: http://plugins.jquery.com/project/dimensions
2: The DropShadow plugin can be located at: http://code.google.com/p/dropshadow/downloads/list?can=2&q=jquery+dropsh...
However the DropShadow plugin there isn't the minified version. I went to http://www.minifyjavascript.com/ and got the minified code and dropped it into a new "jquery.dropshadow.min.js" file, b/c this module wasn't allowing me to proceed until I did that.
