Otis, there's something wrong with your JavaScript. MSIE 8.0.7100.0 on my
Windows7 machine works fine with a simple test. The page is simply
http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/examples-11/new.htm
If you get an alert "test" when the page loads, that's Jmol sending
javascript back. It worked fine for me.
When I go to your page and execute
javascript:alert(appletLoadedA)
That reports a function with Firefox but no function with MSIE. Is that what
you observe as well?
So something in your code is not working.
What I see from the Java console is that when Jmol executes in JAVASCRIPT
the command
!!_jmol.noEval
and needs to get a TRUE back from that, it instead gets a null pointer error
from the browser.
So it's something very specific to your page. I can't pinpoint what it is,
but the same sort of code is being executed on my page, and it works just
fine.
