No, it's freezing for me as well. It's pulling the most recent version of
Jmol from http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/docs/examples-11/, so it seems to
be something that's changed in Jmol. I've updated the page so that it
doesn't try to check the point group until you push the *Check Point
Group*button. That's when it freezes for me.
The code for this page has lots of unecessary junk hanging around since it
was adapted from the "Gallery" page. The molecules are defined in
individual Javascript (JSON) files. I read in the Javascript file using *
XMLHttpRequest* and then pass the molecule to Jmol as an inline data file.
If you want molecules that you can check, go to
http://symmetry.otterbein.edu/gallery_old/molecules/moldata.xml. That
should give you a listing of all the molecules in that directory that are
xml files. Prototype.js (http://www.prototypejs.org/) is Javascript
framework that makes some AJAX (like XMLHttpRequest and DOM manipulation)
stuff a bit easier.
