[Seaside-dev] Using jQuery UI elements with Comet?

Yes. The Comet facilities of Seaside should be useable with any
Javascript library.

That's a cool example. I've added it to Comet-Examples and attached a
file-out to this mail.

The problem is that the Slider object in Seaside misses the method to
set the slider value after it has been instantiated. You can work
around that by sending the message

   aSlider action: 'value' arguments: (Array with: value)

I will add a helper to JQuery-UI.

Cheers,
Lukas
