as far as I know, yes - you will need to concatenate the structures
as independent MODEL (or perhaps FRAME) records.

you should be able to use php to write the Jmol applet and provide
the structure(s) as an inline param; in other words, I don't think
you need a tmp file anywhere. for example, if you assign your
coordinates to a php var, like this:
<?php
$inline_structure = stripslashes(preg_replace('/^/m','|', $mystr
['coordinates']));
?>
then in the applet tag, you can use php to write the coordinates,
like this:
<param name="loadinline" value="|<?php echo $inline_structure ?>" />
this has worked for me in the past. just be sure to append each line
with a bar (|) to fit the syntax for loadinline.
hope that helps,
