Not necessarily ;-) I mean, applets are generated quasi-automated by some
back-end code.

Could be. The problem is to know which of those is involved at a certain
instance.
All this is for automatic, generalized code being run behind the curtains in
Proteopedia. We are after ways for a "scene" (that links to a state script) to
do something in the page area related to that JSmol object.
So I thought that the safest way would be to call this from within JSmol,
instead of from the page, since the same "scene" link may be applied to
different JSmols.
I have managed a solution using an echoCallback. Not too clean, but seems
to do the trick.
Page JavaSscript has this:
function readTheApplet() {
window['calledAppletID'] = arguments[0].replace(/jmolapplet/i,'');
}
and the Jmol script has this:
set EchoCallback "readTheApplet";
set echo dum 0 0; echo ".";
set EchoCallback none; echo;
The global Javascript variable "calledAppletID" in the page then will hold the
ID.
