Re: [Jmol-users] two instances of jmolAppletInline and <inputtype="radio"...>

Hi Mauricio 

Yes, you are missing something, but you are not the first, so it must be NOT obvious :-)

The key is:
jmolLink, jmolButton, jmolCheckbox, jmolRadio, jmolRadioGroup are all User Interface 
controls that are built during page load (i.e.hard-coded in HTML, javascript and jmolScript 
instructions), so they obey jmolSetTarget or, by default, apply to the immediately precedent 
applet.

BUT
jmolScript and derivatives are executed at the moment --e.g. when the user clicks--, and DO 
NOT obey jmolSetTarget or the precedent applet (a term that really does not make any 
sense); you must specify the target as the second parameter in jmolScript.

This is written in Jmol.js documentation on Jmol website, but it seems it's not evident... I don't 
know how to make it more clear --or maybe people just don't read the docs--
Don't worry, I had this same problem once, and other people have asked too the same.

I see, last time I added an extra warning in jmolScript, but didn't realize jmolLoadInlineScript 
was also in the business. I will add a second warning there. However, it is plain clear:

jmolLoadInlineScript(model, script, {targetSuffix})


So, in your code:

> jmolAppletInline(400, template1);	// receives by default the ID "0"
> jmolRadio("spin on","on","isChecked");
> jmolRadio("spin off","off");
> <input type="radio" name="model" value="template$i" 
> onClick="jmolLoadInlineScript(template$i,$jmolscript, template1, 0); return true;"></input>
> .

> jmolRadio("spin off","off");

> onClick="jmolLoadInlineScript(model$i,$jmolscript, 1); return true;"></input> .
