[Seaside] Calling a DOM method from jQuery

[John Toohey]

Hey,
Spent most of the day downloading various Pharo images and trying to
install SS2.9A3, without success. Then I found the pre-builit image
that you uploaded to builder.seaside.st. Downloaded that and did the
following :-

- ScriptLoader loadTools to get the latest package browser. The one in
the image did not work.
- Via MC downloaded the latest Comet-Core, Comet-Examples,
Comet-Squeak, and Comet-Tests
- Start the Counter app
- No data is delivered in the response.

- Ran the Comet-tests and testForkCometProcessDo failed with this :-
