Does the Jena3D snapshot button work for you in the new-age browsers you
mean? I didn't observe any problems (except with size) up to Firefox 3.6
and IE8.
So it is likely the specific way
'jmolGetPropertyAsString("filecontents")' works that is the problem. But
there are other ways to get the file data. There is for example the
"show file" command. At least with PDB files it displays the whole file
content. You can try if this works with those browsers by typing the
command into the script input field within Jena3D. Then the file content
should be displayed in the log area. It might be clipped there because
the log area has a size limit. Only the last 'n' log lines are shown.
So with a message callback function that parses the file content out of
the message stream you should be able to get it into a Javascript
variable. But there might exist other simpler methods.
