Michael, I have something for you. Probably almost there.
http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/jsmol_menu_test.zip
Unzip that and run test2.htm?USE=HTML5&debugcode
After the model loads, right click. You should see the outline of an empty
menu
JSmol is definitely creating the menu -- I can extract the HTML with
jmolApplet0._popups["popupMenu"]._menuContainer.html()
in the developer console -- see http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/jsmol/t.htm
But I don't see how the menu is actually operated.
I know I left out a bunch of jQuery business. Maybe you can see how to add
it in.
All the code you sent me is in j2s/java/coremenu.z.js
This file only loads when the menu is requested.
The reason for the proto.xxx methods is that it allows me to do something
you cannot do in Java -- basically have multiple inheritance.
Good luck!
Bob
