I read with interest the following instructions from this page of the jmol wiki:
http://wiki.jmol.org/index.php/Jmol_Applet#Installing_Jmol_Applet <snip> Although this isn't obvious, the molecule that is being shown in the applet can be saved to local disk (even from the unsigned applet). To do so: 1. Open the applet's menu 2. Click on the last entry (About...). 3. On the submenu that appears, click on the first entry (name of model). 4. Then click on the last entry (View + name of file) 5. Depending on your browser's configuration, the file will be opened in the associated program ("helper application") or you will get an "Open or Save" dialog; choose Save and location in your disk. </snip> I am quite interested in being able to open the structure in Chem Draw but when I try it, what happens is that a link to the word "string" is generated. I don't have either a file named string or a directory named string on my web server so as expected, the web server returns a 404 "resource not found" message. It seems to me, that this is a very nice feature, but to work, jmol would need to post the current structure to the web server and then the web server would have to serve it back to the browser with the correct conent-type (sometimes called mime type) header. In addition to refencing a non-existant program, there was no payload sent along with the request in the form of get, post or file data which I perceive as being necessary. A) Any ideas on how to make this work? and B) What is the file type that comes back to the browser so that I could configure my browser to open Chem Draw as the helper application mentioned in the documentation?
