Thanks for help. I have editted the jmol.js file, and also tried to
include the _jmolMessageCallback function in my page. but somehow the
whole things wasnt working. I have been trying a lot, and will work on
it more tonight. Do you have a web page where you have it implemented?
I am using Safari on Mac OS.
regards
