[jQuery] Nested Corners?

[jQuery] Nested Corners?


I just upgraded my jquery.corner.js from v1.7 to v1.92 and it's
working great. I found 1.92 here:
http://jqueryjs.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/plugins/corner/jquery.corner.js
(via http://www.malsup.com/jquery/corner)
My question is this: I want to get nested corner elements in place on
a drupal 5.7 site to create a border around my rounded sidebars.

I made a rather pitiful attempt today and Drupal freaked out ("Parse
error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /my-path/template.php on
line 312").
The modification I made to my code isbelow (works fine without the
text starting with ".parent" on the fifth line of code):
drupal_add_js('scripts/jquery.corner.js');
drupal_add_js(
'$(document).ready(function() {
$("div#sidebar-left").corner("round 8px").parent().css('padding',
'4px').corner("round 10px");
});',
'inline'
);
Can anyone help me out? My JS skills are pretty weak at this point and
I haven't yet turned anything up in my searches. I suspect it's
something embarrassingly simple and obvious.
