Bob,
This is the cat's meow. Thanks for the help. I'm still stuck with a
server side approach (AJAX very frustrating!), but the "Jmol load
completed" approach seems to work. Cholestane is below. What a slick way
to communicate 3D models via email:
http://chemagic.com/web_molecules/script_page_large.aspx?smiles=...@h]%28cccc%28c%29c%29[c@H]1CC[C@@H]2[C@@]1%28c...@h]3[c@H]2CCC4[C@@]3%28CCCC4%29C%29C
For the JME applet on our page, I'm now using a choice of two load links
- jmeFile or smiles.
I'm interested in how the above link works on Mac. Also, note that the
jmol javascript command does not work with Windows MSIE 8, so the above
link does not work on MSIE. On this problem, MSIE ignores the following
from the console:
javascript alert("rats")
The message returned is:
evalintermediatevaluetoreturn = eval >> ( << "!!_jmol.noEval" )
Chrome and Firefox work just fine - link load and simple alert.
Unfortunately, MSIE never sees the Jmol loaded function.
I think the stereochemisrty of cholestane transferred correctly.

Bob,
You may have told me before, but I forget. How do you signal
JavaScript that the Jmol applet is loaded? I've tried putting a
Jmol javascript command into the Jmol load script, but MSIE seems
to ignore this.
jmolApplet(300, "load xxxx;javascript 'loadDone()' ")
Sorry -- my error -- in this case you need double quotes or no quotes,
not single quotes (because it is in the class of commands such as echo
and message. That should read:
jmolApplet(300, 'load xxxx;javascript "loadDone()" ')
AJAX would be nice, but I can't get past the cross domain security
issue with the unsigned applet. The signed applet scares many
users, so I'm using my server to get past this issue.
Unfortunately, this means each SMILES to mofile is a new load on
my page.
AJAX would be perfect. Just have the applet issue the above loadDone()
function, and then have the AJAX just return the data as text from IU
to a JavaScript function. I know, it's tricky to do this right with
different browsers....
Getting the returned molfile into into a JavaSript variable is a
bit convoluted with ASP.NET <http://ASP.NET>, but it's doable.
Normally this is not a problem, but the line feeds create a
problem in the case of the molfile. I have to go to a hidden field
and then transfer to a JavaScript variable.
Sounds retro.
Anyway, with the above stage set, I just need to be able to hold
the JavaScript load to Jmol off until the applet is loaded.
right - switch those quotes.
