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.
