Hi Albion, I'm using Mozilla's XULRunner to tie together Jmol with some quantum chemistry program input processing tools. This uses XUL and Java Script for the most part. The way I handle the Jmol interface is to have a pop-up window with a stripped down browser dedicated to Jmol using the XUL <browser> tag with an event listener. Using Java Script, I dynamically create HTML web pages which use Bob Hanson's scripts to interface Jmol. My stuff is somewhat complicated because I'm writing an application program that ties together other existing tools in other languages with XUL GUIs. I think AJAX may work for you building upon the Jmol scripts. Did you look at http://jmol.sourceforge.net/docs/, in particular the "Scripting for Jmol" section?
If you'd like to see some code snippets for my XUL interface to Jmol, let me know.
