Well the instructions say that anything that starts with http is <b>evil</b>! I have never used codebase. My problem right now is working within a wiki and that is quite different from normal html. See:- http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:NicoV/Jmol_Extension and:- http://fahwiki.net/index.php?title=Jmol_MediaWiki_Extension I am trying to repeat the latter on another wiki. It is these lines in the php script that are the problem:- "<script src='/extensions/jmol/Jmol.js' type='text/javascript'></script>\n". "<script>\n" . "jmolInitialize('/extensions/jmol');\n". It is not clear these should be /extension/.. or ../extension/.. or even ./extension/... All seem to have been used and one guy claims that with the second it works with the wiki preview but not after saving, and with the third the other way round. > ? > > as long as your Jmol jar files are located in the jmol dir, then it > should work.

The problem here is that the cgi tree is often quite different from the htdocs tree. Writing a page on the fly, you are in the cgi tree, not the htdocs tree. I used a set of soft links to fix it up, but I do not recall exactly how.
