Dear Jmolers, Luciano's recent message reminded me to share with you a recent development of mine. I found a cool and simple trick to display a progress image (animated spinner) while JSmol is being constructed and inserted in its place in the page, that goes away automatically when that insertion has finished. It uses just one line of JS code (in JSmol-speficic syntax), one line of CSS code and an image file. Please see http://wiki.jmol.org/index.php/Loading_Notice#Spinner_while_JSmol_loads
Bob, maybe this could be implemented as default? It worked beautifully in a page of mine where the JSmols took a noticeable time to show up and meanwhile I was just seeing empty blank squares. Now the user can perceive something is going on. (After JSmol has been inserted, the delay in loading large molecules is nicely handled with an echo) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Site24x7 APM Insight: Get Deep Visibility into Application Performance APM + Mobile APM + RUM: Monitor 3 App instances at just $35/Month Monitor end-to-end web transactions and take corrective actions now Troubleshoot faster and improve end-user experience.
