If your users want to get the web page with the current applet view they could just make a screenshot (or several ones, if the page size exceeds the screen size).
If the important thing is the current applet view, you can request an image from Jmol (JPEG format, base64 encoded) with javascript. This image data can then be opened in a new browser window with the aid of a simple CGI script on your server. The CGI script just makes the base64 decoding and sends back the JPEG image to the browser. You can see an example of this in our JenaLib Jmol Viewer, e.g.: http://www.fli-leibniz.de/cgi-bin/3d_mapping.pl?CODE=1deh If you press the "snapshot" button in the "Graphics Window" section you should get a new window containing a JPEG image of the current applet window embedded in some HTML code, hopefully with any browser. Unfortunately there seems to bee a size limitation for data send from Jmol to Javascript, because I get a Java security error if the image size exceeds some limit. This limits the resolution of the image to something between 2000x2000 and 2500x2500 pixels. There is also another solution that shows the image directly in the browser. But it doesn't work with Internet Explorer.
