I have found time to make use of Bob's latest 11-beta features for selecting atom sites and creating new polyhedra/bonds eg click on the formula found with the following search, then check "Select" and click on the two different (blue) sodium sites, then check "Create": http://icsd.ill.fr/icsd/index.php?action=Search&elements=na8+si7+o18
I'm still learning how to best use these great new features, but already I have another question :-) What is the easiest way of loading a local file using a remote server ? I would like to add a "Load" button to allow the user to visualise his own files using my interface, not just those generated by the remote ICSD server. My first thought was to open a file dialogue, allow the user to select his local file, upload it to the server and display it. But then I found Bob's XTALX (Jmol Crystal Explorer) on http://fusion.stolaf.edu/chemistry/jmol/xtalx/ where the user can simply load the contents of a text window. It is so fast that I suppose it isn't first uploaded to his server, but since this page also does lots of other things and uses various javascript file collections on Bob's server, I couldn't easily work out how it was being done.
