Is it possible LOAD a structure from a STRING ?
I am using Visual Basic (VB) with a WebBrowser to allow Jmol to present
the molecule.
Bob Hanson helped me set up a nice system for 2-way communication VB <->
Jmol
Java security is now making it difficult to load files from my local
hard drive.
I could Load the pdb files via VB code and convert that to a string
variable A$.
That would require a Jmol command of the type LoadFromString A$
Is this currently available ? if not, is it a reasonable request ?
In fact I could imagine a calculated structure: rather than saving it
to disk, it could be sent directly to Jmol.

Whilst I am on the topic, we have a long standing issue with file
paths on Windows.
A script such as x = file("?");load @x;
will successfully load a file from a local hard drive, ie
FileManager.getAtomSetCollectionFromFile(file:/C:/temp/C9_mo29.cub)
FileManager opening 1 file:/C:/temp/C9_mo29.cub
as will
x = load("?")
But change the drive to a network drive, and one gets the following
script ERROR:
http://www.ch.ic.ac.uk/rzepa/cub2jvxl///icnas4.cc.ic.ac.uk/rzepa/strepto/C9_mo29.cub
where you can see that the network drive is located on eg
icnas4.cc.ic.ac.uk <http://icnas4.cc.ic.ac.uk> etc
I understand Windows uses different path protocols for local and
network drives?
Finally, none of this load a local file stuff seems to work at
all using JSmol? Are there any plans there?
There is no way in JavaScript to request loading of a SPECIFIC file by
name. Think of the consequences!
Instead, you open a dialog that fetches the file and tells Jmol what
the name of the selected file was.
So I guess
x= file("?")
is out for JavaScript.
Use
x = load("?")
to actually load the file. You will not know the name of the file that
was loaded (currently).
