Well, this is probably a problem that is beyond my capabilities to get around. Still, if this is a general problem, then it's good to get it noted now so that we can think about how to get around it if necessary in the future.

Applet background: the applet background is SUPPOSED to be black. I wonder why it would ever be white on Safari. Miguel?

Page order: What you are saying is that the scripts for highlignting atoms are either not running (the JavaScript stops before that) or the applet is not being found. The fact that you have coordinates and that they are coloring suggests that the applet is generating callbacks. So the implication is that the script command is not firing. If that is the case, then my sendscript() function is not working, either because the setTimeout() is malfunctioning -- no, you say both pages malfunction -- or because the .script() command is not working.

OK, if you can stand to test this any more, I would ask you to do this:

1) start view.htm and then moveto.htm, so that moveto.htm is not working.

2) at the command line for moveto.htm, type the following and let us know what happens:

javascript:alert(document.jmol)

javascript:alert(document["jmol"])

javascript:alert(document.jmol.script("background red"))

javascript:alert(document["jmol"].script("background green"))

javascript:alert(showscript(0,0,"background white"))

Bob,
I have more strange behavior to report. I have just upgraded to Mac OS 10.3.9, but I don't believe this is a factor.
Your moveto page http://www.stolaf.edu/people/hansonr/jmol/docs/examples/moveto.htm
runs fine on a newly opened Safari, but once this is active your two view pages
http://www.stolaf.edu/people/hansonr/jmol/applet/mscalc/view.htm
http://www.stolaf.edu/people/hansonr/jmol/applet/mscalc/view_NOSETTIMEOUT.htm


do not function. Selecting atoms in the first of these lights up the coordinates on the right but does not color the atoms. Also the rotate x button does not work. On returning to the moveto page everything works well. However, if the view pages are the first to be viewed on a newly opened Safari they work well, but the moveto page then fails.
Everything works well on Netscape 7.2, but as I noted earlier the applet background is black in every case.

I'm ALMOST certain I started worrying about this when I was having Mac/Safari
problems at http://www.stolaf.edu/people/hansonr/jmol/docs/examples/moveto.htm


Currently I can't click a link on that page in Safari, so I don't know what is
going on there. But I think it started as an observation while testing Mac/Safari.


I'm glad to hear there isn't any serious Mac issue with my latest. But those
with Macs, if you are still interested in ruining my week can check the above
link as well.
