Yes, I've done that.

That's identical to the file in the distribution. I guess the difference
is that I downloaded the full tgz with source

Actually, it did output a line to the FF stdout one time:

Jmol applet jmolApplet0__931928151916442__ destroyed

I don't think so. Remember the original version still works, and so does
the version served off your own website.

I've solved it now. Apparently the initialize isn't enough by itself.
Adding a load command, generated some output to the page and console.

There's another oddity now. I'll start another thread ...

Thanks again, Dave
