Well, this has just turned out to be the FUNNEST little web site!

http://fusion.stolaf.edu/chemistry/jmol/xtalx/


Some time ago I was experimenting with using DOM Script nodes for cross-browser model file loading. So I integrated that into this page with a days worth of revisions, and what do you know?

--read any RCSB file in PDB format
--read any RCSB file in CIF format
--read any American Mineralogist Crystal Structure CIF file
(these are fun, because if there are multiple crystals, they come packaged in one CIF file)
--read any model at any URL, as long as it isn't compressed.
--extract (small) subsets of the model into a new .MOL file.

so, for example, check these out (and tell me if they work for you):

http://fusion.stolaf.edu/chemistry/jmol/xtalx/?CIF=1crn
http://fusion.stolaf.edu/chemistry/jmol/xtalx/?PDB=1pgb
http://fusion.stolaf.edu/chemistry/jmol/xtalx/?MINERAL=hematite
<http://fusion.stolaf.edu/chemistry/jmol/xtalx/?USER=http://www.stolaf.edu/people/hansonr/jmol/docs/examples/caffeine.xyz>

These very well may NOT work for some people, because they rely on a new technique to check whether the page is loaded prior to loading a model, and it's difficult to test this adequately on one machine. In fact, if this DOES work generally, I will be astounded.

But even if these URL-based loads don't work, I hope some of you will try out loading files via the drop-down menu at least.

Right now this page uses a dynamic DOM Script node and a ColdFusion server page that delivers JavaScript on demand. This is a modification of the page Eric Martz reported earlier not working for some large files. I'll be interested in people exercising it and letting us know their results.

TIA
