It's been discussed several times on this list, and I understood that the use of a **signed** applet will allow to load molecular files from anywhere on the local file system --even from any other web server-- I am trying to use a standard <INPUT TYPE=FILE> to pull molecules form the hard disk, and deliver them to the signed applet. However, I find that the absolute path returned from input is taken by JmolApplet as relative, i.e. appended to the applet or page current path, so nothing is loaded.
Anybody has tried this before? Or is it limited to working with the app (which of course can do it via its File>Open menu)? Note that this not only affects opening local files, but will also concern a possible --and interesting-- mechanism for loading files from the internet, e.g. from PDB. Both will be key features for a Jmol-based Protein Explorer, for example. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
