Brian, I'm quite surprised that your page has started to work NOW. Unless Nico 
has updated 
the Wiki without saying a word, what I updated earlier this evening was the php 
file in the 
Jmol SVN pages. I would not expect that to affect the Wiki automatically.

A recent addition to the Wiki questions security on the basis that any 
javascript can be run 
from Jmol script. I'm not sure, though, what security issues that raises.

The latest post in the Talk page
http://wiki.jmol.org:81/index.php/User_talk:Ilmari_Karonen/JS_injection_demo
sounds very threatening, but I don't understand it fully. It may, however, be a 
big obstacle 
for Wikipedia adoption.
