Hi,

When running JSmol, I noticed that there was a network message sent to
http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/JmolTracker.htm?id=UA-45940799-1' and some 
google analytics activity.

I’d like to turn this tracking off.

On searching around JSmol I found the following:

Jmol._track = function(applet) {
  // this function inserts an iFrame that can be used to track your page's 
applet use.
  // By default it tracks to a page at St. Olaf College, but you can change 
that.
  if (Jmol._tracker && !Jmol._isLocal){
  try {
    var url = Jmol._tracker + "&applet=" + applet._jmolType + "&version=" + 
Jmol._version
      + "&appver=" + self.___JmolVersion + "&url=" + 
encodeURIComponent(document.location.href);
    var s = '<iframe style="display:none" width="0" height="0" frameborder="0" 
tabindex="-1" src="' + url + '"></iframe>'
    Jmol.$after("body", s);
  } catch (e) {
    // ignore
  }}
  delete Jmol._tracker;
  return applet;
}

    // this url is used to Google Analytics tracking of Jmol use. You may 
remove it or modify it if you wish.
Jmol._tracker: 
'http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/JmolTracker.htm?id=UA-45940799-1',
Jmol._isLocal: (document.location.protocol.toLowerCase().indexOf("file:") == 0),

My choices for turning tracking off in my javascript seem to be:

1. set Jmol._tracker to false.
2. set Jmol._local to true.
3. set Jmol._track to function(applet) {return applet}
4. all of the above
5. something else

Choices 1,2, and 3 all seem to remove tracking either independently or when 
used together.

What would you recommend for my long term solution?

Thanks,

—Chuck
