It is synchronous.
Var x = load("http://..........?POST?_PNG_";)
can have any return your server wants to give it. I have my returning the
number of bytes saved in the file (after decoding). Jmol will wait for the
return.
I know that looks like you are loading a page into "x", but you are really
posting information to the server and waiting for a reply, with the reply
going into variable x.
