3. Right-click (Mac: Ctrl-click) on or near the molecule to open JSmol's menu. Select '''File''', '''Save script with state'''. A dialog will appear in which you can choose the location on your computer's disk to save the file. Take note of the name of the file and where you are putting it. This file contains a ''state script'' of JSmol commands that will produce your scene.

4. '''Comment out the load command.''' Edit the state script file with a [[Help:Plain text editors|plain text editor]]. Before you use the state script, you must insert '''#''' before the word "load" in the command at the end of the 3rd block of commands, and then save the file with that change. This disables the command -- disabling it is crucial. It should look something like this:
4. '''Delete the load command.''' Edit the state script file with a [[Help:Plain text editors|plain text editor]]. Before you use the state script, you must the entire command at the end of the 3rd block of commands, and then save the file with that change. Delete <font color="red">everything shown below in red</font>: the entire command beginning with "load", deleting everything up until the closing bracket "}" (keeping that closing bracket!). The load command may be long, wrapping onto several lines in your plain text editor.

7. '''Drag''' the edited state script file and '''drop''' it into JSmol (where the molecule is displayed). Your scene should appear in a few seconds.
7. '''Exit load molecule mode''' by clicking on, for example, the ''selections'' tab. Additional options will appear below the molecule.


8. Use the '''save scene''' tab to save your scene. Follow the instructions there to insert a green link into the page to show your scene.
