Hi Rolf, Otis, Angel and Bob, Many thanks - yes, the '<!DOCTYPE html>' should not be where it is and I don't know how it got there - an editing glitch maybe but I'm now not sure which version of the file I've tried so I will make sure that's sorted and try it again. I'll also try the suggestion to use "jsmol/j2s" rather than "./j2s". Thanks for the tip regarding the <script> attributes.
I'm doing this locally on all the machines I've tried and it only seems to fail on the student fleet... works on my office machine and one at home. I'll report back shortly. What a wonderful list - many thanks for the suggestions!
