That did indeed work, Bob. Thanks.
Now I can use gzip but should I? Thinking about it more, should I bother with
gzip if I know I am targeting an iPad device specifically? I thought I'd be
saving data download resources for good-sized PDB file but what you describe
sounds like it may end up costing someone's data plan more?
I saw some discussion of gzip come up with regard to the packaging of the JSmol
scripts but I didn't catch if there might be things to consider for different
systems/devices.

To: Wayne Decatur <[email protected]>,
Ah, I know what this is, I think. The browser on your iPad cannot read
binary files using AJAX.
You will need to install jsmol.php (see jsmol.php in jsmol.zip) on your
server and point to that using Info.serverUrl. That is necessary for any
file that is binary with certain platforms so that the page can pass the
URL to the server, which will convert it to base64 format and then pass
that data back to the page.
