This is a very weird one. I think it is a bug in Safari, but I am not sure.
Go to this test page in Safari, draw any structure, do a 3D minimization, and press the button underneath. It calls a Javascript script as follows:
function getIndexOf() {
var testStr = document.responseApplet.getMol("mrv");
alert("testStr.indexOf('?x') = " + testStr.indexOf('?x')
+ ", testStr.indexOf('z3=') = " + testStr.indexOf('z3=')
+ ", testStr=\n" + testStr);
testStr = '' + testStr;
alert("after modifying with '', testStr.indexOf('?x') = " + testStr.indexOf('?x')
+ ", testStr.indexOf('z3=') = " + testStr.indexOf('z3=')
+ ", testStr=\n" + testStr);
}Note that Safari fails to find '?x' and 'z3=' with indexOf() when the value is first acquired from the applet, but, after the value of the variable is forced to be a String, it finds them.
Now go to the same page with Firefox. It works properly, finding '?x' and 'z3=' immediately.
Do you have any idea why Safari is failing to find the substrings in the value returned from the applet? AFAIK, this is a new behavior. It happens in both Marvin 4.1 and Marvin 5.2.
