David,
Found it…
Warning: I have no idea what I’m doing, and I could be breaking everything. By
trial and error I discovered the following:
I couldn’t get gz file download to work by putting anything in the jmol2.js
file. I thought the “serverURL" belonged between lines 38 and 37, but that
didn’t work.
It occurred to me that the JSmol.min.js file was being called by my page, so I
decided to search the JSmol.min.js file. I found multiple occurrences for the
“serverURL” value. On line 269 I replaced the
“http://your.server.here/jsmol.php” with a path to my php file and it worked.
It worked when I used the complete URL, and it worked when I used a relative
path. However, it has occurred to me that the relative path will not always be
the same. The relative path that seems to matter here is not the path from
where the JSmol.min.js file resides to the Jmol.php file but the relative path
from where that file is being called from (the location of the html file) to
the Jmol.php file.
Since I test my pages on my personal computer before uploading them to a
server, I don’t want to hard code a URL (http://blah.blah.blah/php/jmol.php)
into this file. Since I may not always call JSmol from the directories that are
always at the same depth in my web pages, I think that I am going to keep
putting the “serverURL:” value in the header of the page that calls for JSmol.
That way I can use relative paths and I can get the pages to load regardless of
the server that is hosting them.
So in the headers of the pages that call JSmol I have this.
<script type="text/javascript">
var Info = {
j2sPath: "../../reuse/j2s",
use: "HTML5",
serverURL: "../../reuse/php/jsmol.php"
};
Jmol._alertNoBinary = false;
</script>
The Jmol._alertNoBinary= false; was suggested to suppress and error message
that Safari keeps giving when it goes to download the file. The error still
shows up in Safari’s “Error Console” but it has no effect that I can see on the
loading of the page.
I haven’t finished switching everything over, but so far it has been working.
