>What is the call to that server look like? What's the URL? >Bob Bob, Thank you very much for the quick answer. It has completely answered my question. The scripts I am referring to are simply rasmol scripts to alter the appearance of the structure e. g. "spin on;". I had constructed my pages starting from your "supersimple.htm" example which included in the initial function the line: serverURL: "http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/jsmol/jsmol.php" I found that when I changed the URL to my server, the page did not work. And so I had thought it was essential to have an active php server accessed. But with the information you provide, I see that I should have no need for this for the simple things I am doing. A simple deletion of that line from my pages has no effect on their function (I should have tried that sooner). So once I edit my pages to remove this I will no longer have reference to any outside server on my pages. Here is an example of one of my pages: http://www.mcb.ucdavis.edu/courses/jsmol/madjs.htm I only use .pdb files and so I should have no need for any of the functions you mention so far as I can tell. I will edit all of my pages to remove calls to your server. Thanks! Jaim, Thanks for bringing proteopedia to my attention. I will consider your offer. Right now during development it is simplest to host my pages on my Dept. server. I am also considering ChemWiki and BioWiki which are NSF-funded projects hosted at my institution.
