I am confused about something in the FAQ. (I think this ends up being a question about Java applets running on users machines but I figure this is a consideration of other people here because you want the applet to load when someone opens a page with Jmol applet.) In the FAQ it says that Windows Internet Explorer 5.5 with built in JVM should handle the Jmol applet and nothing is necessary to run the jmolapplet from the client side because it will be downloaded automatically. From the FAQ it sounds like a computer with Windows ME and Internet Explorer 6.0 should be fine. The problem is that in the lab we have one Dell computer Windows ME and Internet Explorer 6.0. If I go to the the Jmol applet page, I do not see any applet windows. I know it works on other computers where I have the Sun Java plug-in installed, but my excitement with Jmol stems from the independence of the obscure-in-the-real world Chime plug-in. Can I expect a lot of people to still not see anything on a page with even a a very simple Jmol applet like the first one on the Jmol applet page? I also put some text in the code for the applet on a web page on my wesbsite that I had seen Sun use in the code for the Java demo applets and that does not come up upon the aforementionned computer without Sun's Java either. The text I put in the code is - alt="Your browser understands the <APPLET> tag but isn't running the applet, for some reason. "Your browser is completely ignoring the <APPLET> tag!).
So essentially the user has no idea they are missing out. Is there a better way that I should be addressing this?
