Frames/divs
The div can be scaled as a % height, but this breaks the scrolling in IE, although not in Safari/Mozilla. I figured that since we cannot (should not, according to the Jmol.js docs) scale the applet box to the window size, this was not too much of an issue, and I simply provided a small version for small monitors. I guess even that may be too tall for an 800x600 monitor with a lot of toolbars at the top of the browser.
% sizing of the applet would be a desirable feature.

Frames: Pretty close! I'm almost sold on divs and ready to say I'm done developing with frames. Can you dynamically set the height of that div so that it adjusts to overall window height? On my machine the scroller goes down below the bottom of my screen, so I have to "scroll to scroll" That, of course, doesn't happen with frames.
Frames were so nice because they allowed for automatic fractional window amounts. Is this possible easily with divs, or do you have to hard code all the coordinates. "position:absolute" can be difficult.
[I know this is a bit off the focus of the Jmol list, so I'm cross-posting to ChemWebDev.]

There was an earlier discussion about the desirability of managing without frames, so in that spirit, I put together the following with a scrolling div - I had previously used frames with Chime. As long as the div is 'position: absolute' and 'overflow: auto', then it works fine (with Jmol.js):
