Re: [Jmol-users] signed applet

Mon, 28 Aug 2006 10:46:41 -0700

Hi, and thanks for your help!

Well, when I was searching for a way to run my jmol pages locally, I found the instructions
some trying around with the proposed methods, decided to use method c, using

jmolInitialize("../../Jmol",window.location.protocol == "file:"); 
 
which, according to what's said on that page, should use the signed applet if needed.
Luckily, I also put the jmol files into the correct position in the file path.
So far, this worked fine for me, whether I opened my pages with a file://... url locally or with a 
http://... url to open the  pages over a web server, and to tell the browser to trust the applet  
once per session did not seem too much of a bother. 

However, when I replaced the jmol 10.3.1 files by the jmol 11 beta files, nothing worked. 
Eventually I realized that I could not just rename  the jmol-11.js file to jmol.js, but had to change 
the reference to the file, and I at least got it to work from the server. Now, if I also remove the
 ",window.location.protocol == "file:" from all files, things should work again. 
But it took your answer to my question for me to realize that this was the problem.

I don't know if you need any other special property of a signed applet.
But there should be no problem to use the unsigned applet without a web
server. I used for example Jmol version 10.00.36 from an USB stick
through a web browser.

As a user I rather don't like signed applets, because they are more
risky. So if it is not really necessary it would be better to use the
unsigned applet, in my opinion.

right, thanks for correcting that link.
I'd like to hear from people who are using the signed applet; I don't 
think many people are doing that.
If your data files can be on the CD, then there's no need. Just make 
sure the data files are in a subdirectory of the directory containing 
the JAR files.
That's the only additional restriction for use from a local drive.

Dear Bob

Thanks for your answer. I have so far been working with whatever 
version was

The link you indicated (http://www.stolaf.edu/academics/jmol)  does 
not work, 
I did download the Jmol 11 beta 

Is there a signed applet available for the most recent version of Jmol? 
The stuff I am currently working on is to be distributed on CD and 
therefore needs to function
without being placed on a web server.

               Thank you very much
