PHP runs on the web server.

Jmol runs on the client and can only access data through a URL.

Just configure your web server to allow access to a 'virtual directory'.

OR

put in a symbolic link do your data directory (assuming that your web
server is configured to follow symbolic links)

Every web server allows you to create 'virtual directories' that expose
directory trees without having to copy the contents.
