Okay, so it's a safari issue. Onload timing is messed up that doesn't wait for
the page to actually finishing loading.

Heh, who'd thunk that geeksquad's darling browser runs too fast for even itself?

Subject: Re: [Jmol-users] ff3 vs safari.. again.. load
no kidding! What's firing the loadLigands() function? A button? A callback
(that could be the problem -- not good to run jmolScript from a callback on
some platforms, I think).
Try using
setTimeout("loadLigands('....')",100)
in whatever call is doing that. I know the quotes are pain there. You might
implement it this way:
function loadLigands(structure, trigger) {
if (!trigger) {
setTimeout("loadLigands('"+structure+"',1)",100)
return
}
var load_script = "load " + structure + ";select all; spacefill 20%;
wireframe 0.35;";
jmolScript(load_script);
}
This starts a new thread so that the thread involved in the user clicking can
complete, and the load can go by a different thread.
But really, that's very odd.

Hi all,
So here's something new that's confusing me. I am loading a multi-structure
mol2 file. That's as simple as it gets, right? That's what I thought too till
safari spoke. In Firefox3, the molecule loads no problem. In safari, it
doesn't.. *unless* I put in an alert message right before the load command.
Below is the barebone of my code. It seems like something is out of sync in
safari that I need to slow it down (alert message) for the script to catch up.
Help. Thanks.
