Bob and Angel,

Bingo! Stepping back to:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">

on this page fixed the problem. Thanks for the suggestion.

If at some point in the near future, washing my shoe laces pops to the top 
of my todo list, I'll look for that syntax error. MSVWD is really fussy 
about pointing out syntax problems with its Errors (RED), Warnings 
(Yellow), Messages (Blue) system, so finding the error is not going to 
involve the obvious. For future reference, I'll let you know if I find it.

Thanks again for the help.

Otis

Subject: Re: [Jmol-users] MSIE 9 

Otis,

Applet loads for me using MSIE 9.0/Windows 7. An additional yellow box 
saying I don't have Java installed ALSO is displayed under the applet. But 
the applet is fine. This does not occur with my pages, so I suspect it is a 
subtle problem with your page HTML. For example, a missing /> in a tag that 
does not require a closing, like <br />, or a missing </p> or something 
like that. What's happening is that MSIE is being stricter than other 
browsers. This is happening because your page header claims that it is 
XHTML 1.0, and so MSIE expects that to be compliant, which it is not:

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fchemagic.com%2Fweb_molecules%
2Fscript_page_large.aspx&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&g
roup=0

Firefox and Chrome are more generous. I would first fix those errors and 
see if it corrects the problem, and I would also check removing that XHTML 
claim.
