Eran kindly provided me with his test files that demonstrate what 
appears to us to possibly be a bug in Jmol 11.8.7 and later versions 
that precludes getting the correct initial display when 2 jmols are 
on one page. I have adapted Eran's demo and put it here

http://www.umass.edu/molvis/tests/Jmolx2_version_test/

There you can test a very simple page with 2 Jmols, with 3 different 
versions of Jmol.

When one of the Jmols gives the wrong display (and reports loading 
the wrong PDB file in its menu), if you open its console and 
re-execute its one-line history, the display comes out correct!

The 2 jmols are running state scripts generated by Jmols versions 
11.5.41 and 11.5.42. Could this be part of the problem -- using state 
scripts from earlier versions of Jmol? If so, it is a significant 
problem for Proteopedia.Org which has hundreds of state scripts saved 
with earlier Jmols being run in later Jmols. Proteopedia is currently 
using Jmol 11.6.14. When we tried to upgrade it to 11.8.7, the 
problem demonstrated above became apparent. Ideally we would like to 
use the existing state scripts (from older versions) in newer Jmols.

At the main page at the above URL you can download the entire fileset 
in one zip file, for local testing and editing.

Thanks for your help! -Eric
