It certainly sounds like a browser bug to me and should be reported to the
appropriate complaint department. Obviously there is nothing Jmol is doing
wrong. Since JSMol uses a completely different mechanism, I would expect
that it would fix that. How does peak picking look for you at
http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/jsmol/jsmol.htm ? Click on a few atoms of
the caffeine model, then press the [show] link under the canvas and see if
you have something like this at the end of that:
setStatusAtomPicked(1,C2 #2 2.2465 -2.1761999999999997 0.0031)
