Panther 10.3/Safari works well with the existing JmolApplet.

You should be able to see some simple examples at:
  http://jmol.sf.net/preview


The basic JmolApplet has always worked on OSX and on Safari ... although
there were some trouble areas.

Apple's previous implementations of Java & Safari were deficient in
certain areas (most notable LiveConnect). But the base Jmol did work.

The good news is that Apple fixed a large number of issued with 10.3
Panther. So, as far as I know, almost everything works today.

Agreed.

This is not something that Jmol has control over.

Each platform needs to implement basic user interface features in
accordance  with the user-interface guidelines of that platform.

Works fine on Linux and on Win32 ... Looks like a bug that Apple hasn't
fixed yet :-(
