OK, looks like there is a new Firefox security policy:
For all local files accessed via JavaScript, both the JAR file AND the HTML
file must be on the path to that file.
Pretty sure that's new.
The fix for me was to move the Jmol-12.... directory into the pages
directory, modify the files, and it worked. Of course, this is an
EXCEPTIONAL drag!!! Kind of removes the possibility of using the local
applet within anything more than a single-directory context. Actually, the
solution looks like using this path set:
.... /jmol
.............[all jar files here]
............./pages
.............[html here]
This basically makes impossible use of the unsigned applet on a local
machine.
