I apologize, I realized that I needed to actually create an instance
of methodCall, and then call that. I was trying to call:
methodCall.call('afunction','someargs');
I looked again at the example code in the API docs, and created an
instance like this:
var functionCall = new methodCall('functionCall');
And then called that instance like this:
onclick="functionCall.call('afunction',someargs');"
So, hopefully if any other newbies have the same problem they will be
able to search the group and find this mostly one-sided discussion :)
