Hi Otis and Angel,

My intention is to run everything without recourse to an internet connection 
(i.e. just on the computer in front of which the user is sitting) and to 
provide a cut down version with just JSmol.min.js and the files in j2s folder 
to each student. I've been working with a folder (let's call it JSmol-CHM1004) 
in which are JSmol.min.js, the j2s folder, a folder for molecular files (called 
molecules) and the HTML files created.

Even with the suggestion of using "jsmol/j2s" rather than "./j2s" I cannot get 
it to work. As Angel has surmised, I'm not sure it's necessary to use the 
former but the latter doesn't work either and neither does just "j2s".

Also using a student access computer, I have had problems loading 
http://chemapps.stolaf.edu/jmol/jsmol/test2.htm and there appears to be a Java 
issue again.

These problems all arise using IE, which is the default browser. I could use 
Chrome but then I run into the issues answered on Monday, which I think I'd 
rather try to avoid. So far as I'm aware, no other browsers are available on 
our network and, of course, we can't install things.

I have put a Word file, with screen shots of various stages of first loading a 
local file (as I've defined it) and the test2 file, up at 
http://www.research.plymouth.ac.uk/pegg/staff/lewis_ca/testing/JSmol 
tests.docx<http://www.research.plymouth.ac.uk/pegg/staff/lewis_ca/testing/JSmol%20tests.docx>
 in case this helps at all. I've also made available a zip file with my set-up 
at 
http://www.research.plymouth.ac.uk/pegg/staff/lewis_ca/testing/JSmol-CHM1004.zip
 (N.B. I know the j2sPath is set slightly differently in the various files).

Apologies for the time and effort this is taking and maybe what I'm making some 
fundamental error along the way.

Many thanks for everyone's assistance,

Anthony

Anthony,

I was curious about your intent re local running. I've been working on 
implementing local running for a number of Jmol browser applications. How are 
you delivering jsmol to the student computers running the page - over local 
network or in a complete package (folder) on the student computer? I can 
imagine all types of local issues with the former approach.

In the stuff I'm working on, I've come to define locally two ways:

1) The app is completely local - no ifs ands or buts! - i.e. local.
2) The app is double-click runnable, but it requires an Internet connection - 
i.e. "local."

In class room and meeting presentations, both local and "local" have some use. 
I've not thought about adding local network to this list, but, again, I suspect 
that there would be all kinds of problems with this.

Otis

Hi Rolf, Otis, Angel and Bob,

Many thanks - yes, the '<!DOCTYPE html>' should not be where it is and I don't 
know how it got there - an editing glitch maybe but I'm now not sure which 
version of the file I've tried so I will make sure that's sorted and try it 
again. I'll also try the suggestion to use "jsmol/j2s" rather than "./j2s". 
Thanks for the tip regarding the <script> attributes.

I'm doing this locally on all the machines I've tried and it only seems to fail 
on the student fleet... works on my office machine and one at home.

I'll report back shortly.

What a wonderful list - many thanks for the suggestions!

Anthony
