(temporarily) if the pop-out window works ok.
But now we're both seeing that logged in users can't use FF (by the way
I've seen this problem for a number of years even without any updates to
Jmol or the notebook). Can we recommend against using FF on MacOS as it
doesn't work reliably anyway?

> Hmm. I have 10.6.7, FF 3.6.13, Jmol menu says I have Apple Java
!1.6.0_24. This time, it just totally froze FF. Yes, blank Jmols. But
like I said, that didn't happen an hour ago.
I'm testing against 10.6.6, but otherwise the same as you. (also just
tested FF 3.6.14-same results). This gives me a little to go on, but I
fear if we choose to call this a blocker we will be waiting for a
significant notebook rewrite. I could put in a browser check that pops up
an alert for MacOS users telling them to use Safari if they have problems.
