Bob,Ok, I can see a mac-like dialog without the text entry box for the applet inside firefox using the web page
http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/examples-11/simple.htmThis appears to be because the dialog is handled by the firefox interface to the JVM, which is requesting a MacOS look and feel.
I agree. I see no way of allowing the text entry for URL access without using a separate dialog box.
Based on this I think we should maintain the application using its own look and feel rather than the OS look and feel.

The Jmol application does not use the local look and feel (my recollection is that is the expected behavior, as we are not using the swing and its local look and feel option). Thus I'm surprised if you see Jmol having more mac-like windows when you test it. I typed in the file name in the "file name" box and the application opens it fine.Jonathan
