Dear Bob,
Many thanks for your reply! I will try immediately and I will let you knows s
soon as possible.
Yes, I am trying it locally, with Firefox on a CentOS Linux 6.5 driven virtual
machine, since this is the operating system that is used on my University cloud
to host small servers, so I had no choice... ;).
Before posting I made several trials and as far as I can remember I also tried
to use the whole, complete, URL address, but I will try again following your
advice. I started by inspecting the code of a page of Angel, since this seemed
performing the visualization I needed to reproduce and I found that he applied
the declaration of the Info variable in the <head> before using the getApplet
command in the body section. The problem arises in a very simple page where the
simple JSME and JSMol are introduced, just to let the user to draw a molecule
and transfer it into JSMol. To inspect the problem nature I eliminated all code
that was not directly interesting for this basic duty.
My basic idea was to insert in a mySQL DB (using MolDB5r from Prof. Harder,
Wien University, Austria) several molecules with some descriptor, like IUPAC
name to make available to my students (and external students, when properly
working and the DB will be sufficiently populated...) some kind of problems to
make their practice. I tried to use JSMol to help students in the assign
correctly the chirality and while more or less the code is just the same, apart
from JSMol part of the code, this should (and really works!) properly.
As a matter of fact, I have already found some difference when using typical
HTML code introduced in Joomla. As an example, when using a <button......> tag
you will not be able to pass any variable by POST to the same page by reloading
it... The result is that when one clicks on the button the page is immediately
reloaded without "real" interaction with the user request. By using the older
tag <input type="button" ....> things work as one would expect. By this, I
would imagine that also something in the code of the CMS could also interacting
with the user introduced code. I would also try different extension of Joomla
to work directly with code into articles. Maybe this could also be related to
those extension programming, being not able to parse correctly but I am quite
sceptic about it. The extensions, normally, work well or do not work at all.
Sorry of the long post.... When working properly I will be glad to let you and
the community informed about tips & tricks, skills and so on... ...related to
the use of JSME and JSMol in a CMS like Joomla and let available the code I
used (not so great thing, but for newbies it could help to solve problems and
to get new ideas, like your code helped me).
Many thanks again!
Best regards,
Pierluigi Quagliotto
