I do much of my development on a WinME box running IE 5.5 using the MSFT JVM, so normally it works. Do me a favor ... go to the page: http://jmol.sf.net/preview And see if your machine works with the demos that are on that page. Let me know if you have problems. > 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.

I certainly hope that is not the case. Our goal for the applet is to allow anyone with any browser to be able to go to a site and see the Jmol applet in operation. > 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!). The alt text does not show up because the browser *does* support the APPLET tag. The other thing you can try is this: open View -> Java Console before going to the page. Let us know if you see any error messages printed to the console. Try this and the Jmol v10 prerelease demonstrations and let us know what happens.
