Thanks for your help Bob. I went to Console.app and checked out the
Java log and found the following.
org.jmol.applet.Jmol load time = 2 seconds
FileManager.openFile(../../file.php/11/1a3n.pdb)
SmarterJmolAdapter:The Resolver thinks:null
error opening http://moodle.depauw.edu/file.php/11/1a3n.pdb
unrecognized file format
openFile(../../file.php/11/1a3n.pdb) 1202 ms
This is pretty much what Dean found earlier. As he mentioned, this
seems to be a Firefox on OS X issue only.

This is usually an indication that your server is not properly finding
the files. It's a directory issue. Be sure to open the Java contol
panel
-- argh on a Mac -- ah, look at the Java log in the System logs
folder -- and see what it is telling you. It will say something
like "file not found -- JmolApplet.jar" or something like that.
Then we could know what
"loads the applet just fine" means. Be sure to try on a PC as well
using
Firefox.

My university is currently trying Moodle as an alternative to
Blackboard for a Course Management System. One of the things I like
about Moodle is that it supports Jmol. However, we have had some
problems so far. I have put a couple of Jmol pages on my Moodle
site. I am able to view the molecules just fine in Safari but not in
Firefox (Mac OS X 10.4.8). In Firefox, it loads the applet just fine
but fails to load the molecule. I get a black box which, when I
control click, gives the pop-up menu which indicates no atoms are
loaded. We are using Jmol 10.2. I have asked them to switch to
11.0,
but it hasn't happened yet. If anyone has any suggestions about what
is going wrong that I could forward to our Moodle site
administrator I
would really appreciate it. I haven't yet had the chance to test on
any other systems so I don't know how it behave there.
Thanks.
