Justin,
Another approach that should work is to load each file into a different
frame so that you would have frames or models 1.1, 2.1, 3.1. You could move
each structure independently as you want, and then display them using the
commands frame 0.0; display 1.1,2.1,3.1.

Hello Justin
In brief, you cannot do what you want in Jmol. Jmol uses the atom
coordinates in the file, so if you load several files in the same
window you cannot move them separately (well, there are the recent
translateSelected and rotateSelected commands, so maybe you can, but
it is not a very versatile movement and these are not frequently
used, so you will have to find out by yourself)
Latest versions of Rasmol can do that (no applet version, just
application).
Another thing you can do is to insert 3 applets in a web page, and
load one file into each. Then you have independent movement on each
molecule.
To achieve what you want in a single applet (but still without
independent rotation of each single molecule) you would need to
combine the 3 files into one and edit it so that each molecule gets
new coordinates. This sort of thing can be done e.g. in Accelrys
Discovery Studio Visualizer. Then, save back the result into a new
pdb file wwhich you would open in Jmol.
More powerful software like DeepView will let you do the same and
also do the alignment of the molecules for you, although it takes
some effort to learn how to do that.
Hope you can find a solution
