Problem when sharing dropShadow definitions across different SVG elements

[cordesmj]

I had a problem when I used the same dropShadow definition in two different SVG elements in two different DIVs. When I try hiding one of the DIVs (using $().fadeOut() or similar), it messed up the element in the other DIV using the same definition (in my case, a PATH element).

I found I was able to work around this by tweaking the dropShadow signature so that I could pass in the id of the element containing the SVG element. This id gets appended to the filter id definition in the plugin:

fltr.id = "dropShadow_" + (""+size + " " + offsetX + " " + offsetY + " " + opacity + " " + id).hashCode();

This results in a separate filter definition for each container, which seemed to fix the problem.
