Then the javascript can send stuff to a different server for conversion.
As I said, it would be nice to embed the conversion in the Notebook
server, but since any realistic server will be proxied behind something
like Apache that can handle the existing .php script it is probably better
to just put that on the server and change the path for the .php script to
point to the local Apache server and not the Jmol community server.
Should an item be added to the administrative settings page of the
notebook?
What I meant was that many people (including myself) use the notebook
locally on localhost. That is just a standard use case. I *also* use it
remotely on a "real webserver", but a lot of times I'm just trying
something and want to do it on my own computer. Are you saying that JSmol
doesn't work in this case unless you are using Firefox? That would be
pretty unfortunate, especially since Chrome has such domination in terms
of browser share now.
That said, switching between this branch and the "usual" one has caused
some horrible problem with my Sage (probably my own error somewhere) so I
can't test this yet, even though I thought I had it set up last night :(
