Handle multiple selection of molecules in Marvin applet

Hi,

I am using Marvin applets (version 6.2.2) and load multiple molecules in a scrollable table like the example (https://www.chemaxon.com/marvin/examples/applets/view/javascripting.html).

In the example, each cgi works for each moelcule.

But I need one cgi (or java script) to handle multiple selection. 

If three moleculs are checked, how do I know which three ones? Is there any way to implement it?

Thank you.

Dear Euna,

   With some cheat you can do it. You can write a JavaScript function that saves to a global variable which molecule is selected and which is not. Than you can use this information to start searching with multiple molecules. E.g.:

//The max number of loaded molecules should be set as a constant value.
var MAX_NUMBER_OF_MOLECULES = 10; 

var selection = new Array();

//This method should be run on pageload
function initSelection() {
	for(var i=0; i<MAX_NUMBER_OF_MOLECULES; ++i) {
		selection=false;
	}
}

function toogleSelection(cellNum) {
	if(selection[cellNum)) {
		selection[cellNum]=false;
	} else {
		selection[cellNum]=true;
	}
}

function startSearch() {
	for(var i=0; i<MAX_NUMBER_OF_MOLECULES; ++i) {
		if(selection) {
			//Do search with mview.getM(i, "mrv");
		}
	}
}
