No --- WinXP/Java 1.6.0_10rc works fine for me for "load =1blu" using a
local signed applet. Please try that update. Could just be a Java bug. There
should be no such issue there.

The MacOS issue was resolved by not using the Mac "look and feel" (which
doesn't include that file entry box). That was a change made in Jmol
11.6.RC15 on 9/15/2008. But if you can't enter a file name in that Linux
box, what is it for? Sounds like a Linux/Java bug.

Keept that thought -- no new translations for 11.6, please.
