ok, here are the simple test pages: uses callbacks, applet in location 1: <http://dev.molvisions.com/debugging/jmolcalls.html> uses callbacks; applet in location 2: <http://dev.molvisions.com/debugging/jmolcalls_diffapp.html> no callbacks, applet in location 1: <http://dev.molvisions.com/debugging/jmolcalls_nocallback.html> no callbacks, applet in location 2: <http://dev.molvisions.com/debugging/jmolcalls_nocallback_diffapp.html> I'm interested to hear what people find. I do not see callbacks making any difference. for debugging, please make sure that you clear browser cache and restart your browser as soon as you see a failure... regards, tim -- Timothy Driscoll molvisions - see, grasp, learn. <http://www.molvisions.com/> usa:north carolina:raleigh > >Bob > > >Philip Bays wrote: > >>I have tried Tim's new page.
