[Jmol-users] jmolApplet build up fail
Dear Jmol Users I'm running a website, where a server side script carries out a number of steps, builds up a new HTML structure including a Jmol applet and returns it to the browser to be displayed. Without the jmolApplet call, everything builds up nicely, but using jmolApplet([300,300]), the page is overwritten and only the applet displays. What are common reasons for such behaviors? Thanks for any feedback. Martin -- For Developers, A Lot Can Happen In A Second. Boundary is the first to Know...and Tell You. Monitor Your Applications in Ultra-Fine Resolution.

A server side script should work fine. Can you provide a URL to see what you get? Jmol + server side scripts that generate HTML on the flight are used on numerous sites.

Re: [Jmol-users] jmolApplet build up fail
I believe my problem is with relative/absolute file pathing. What is unclear to me is the following: Given I can load an applet, and from its Main menu, I open the console. In the console i hit cd, showing me the default directory. What is the definition of default directory? Say cd prints www.thisjmolpage.com to the console and I use a Jmol script to set up the applet. Any path in the Jmol script has to be relative to this path, correct? Or relative to the HTML document initializing the Jmol applet? Thanks for any clearification.

Re: [Jmol-users] jmolApplet build up fail
Path would be relative to that, yes. But you can make them absolute by starting them with / or http://; The problem with the page overwriting almost certainly means you are firing the jmolApplet() method after the page is loaded. This method uses document.write() so it has to be used at the time of page loading. See the source for those pages that Jaim suggested.
