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":

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.

Alan.
