Miguel, you are correct, it definitely is the Chime plugin, I keep getting
an error on Explorer when I access that page:
"The ChemScape Chime plug-in 'chimepeek' is busy" .
Now if I could just see whatever graphic it was trying to display I would be happy.

I was unable to get this to work on my linux box.

So I tried it on my win32 box.

When I saw the output I suspected that he was using the Chime plugin.

As far as I know, there is no reason he couldn't switch to the Jmol
plug-in today.
 - chime does not have the functionality
 - if he uses Jmol then he will be able to run on Unix boxes & Macs.

And it could run more nicely because he could use javascript to load the
(modified) molecule into the existing applet rather than reloading the
entire page each time.

I will be glad to assist if he needs any help in converting the page to
use Jmol.

These things may well be worth doing.

In the meantime, there is no reason he couldn't use the Jmol applet
*today* as a direct replacement for Chime.
