  • SweetMercury, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12That's AWESOME.
  • Hacktivist, on 10/12/2007, -2/+11You're in luck. This is flash.
  • BarriedaleNick, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6What on earth are you talking about - resizes perfectly in IE7 and firefox. Looks great too. Our Chem dept loves it - this is about content not about coding.
  • addiggt, on 07/06/2009, -0/+5Mendeleïev would be proud.
  • mikeabundo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3And to think I had to carry several of these in high school 'cuz they weren't detailed enough.

    Kids today have it easy.
  • liquidizer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Some of the text is illegibly small at times, but it's a nice interface apart from that.
  • olegk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Table!
  • cmooney, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Amazing!
  • BerenTW, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2i prefer this one

  • dillboy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Detailed!
  • r3neGaDe, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I wish i would have know about this a couple years ago when i was taking Chem. It would have been really helpful with electron configs (it even has diagrams of orbital shells).
  • albinoMithos, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I thank my chemistry professors deeply for never making me reproduce the long hand electron configuration for Roentgenium or any other element after that in a test.....I know its not really that hard but I always seem to mess up after filling up the 4s shell
  • phir0002, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1very cool!
  • shefftim, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Fantastic. Look at the Color and Config options in the (small) drop down menu bar at top right. Really good, useful piece of work. Every lab should have this bookmarked.
  • clownx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I used this before. For a science project on fireworks, I think.
  • antdude, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Way too tiny even on my 17" CRT monitor with 1152x864 resolution. :(
  • cheez, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1the big periodic table at my school has the lanthanides and actinides embedded too, it's so long when you do this
  • digitalvisual, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This swf must have taken a lot of work and coding to pull off. I'm curous if its done in actionscript 1 or 2, if he's using an onEnterFrame or an AsBroadcaster / laddListeners setup.. it seems pretty responsive.
  • snypa, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You can roll over any of the noble gases to see that theyve spelt it wrong.
  • anon52, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1This is really great. I could pour over the various atomic configurations for hours - wonkie.

    Anyone else ever had the feeling that the number of electrons in a shell is, in some mysterious way, related to the IP addresses (you know, class A, B, C)?
  • Desconocido, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0What a work of Art. Very impressive.

    I suspect its rating would be much higher if it was returned as a result under the "Science" topic (which it isn't) when searching using the words "Periodic Table". Now, how can that be changed?
  • bruce89, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Interesting error message:
    "SWF file contains features known to trigger bugs."
    Mind you, this is in Totem, as I have an AMD64 Ubuntu. (no flash plugin)
  • morgdx, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1They spelled 'Noble Gases' wrong. Roll over Helium to see. Sorry for being such a pedant.
  • everton4, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1Looks suprisingly good on my box running RHEL3 and firefox 1.5.0.1! It would also be nice if it told you the original latin names - but very well put together regardless!
  • dougster, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0very handy indeed +digg
  • geronimo, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1grrh looks like crap on linux
  • im12env, on 10/12/2007, -6/+2Im sick and tyred of hearing about AJAX. grrrrrr
  • invader, on 10/12/2007, -11/+6OMFGAJAXDIGG!!

    i know, i know.. i'm gonna get modded through the floor for that... but i couldn't resist!!! :'( *emo tear*
  • heretic24, on 10/12/2007, -5/+0How ugly Flash is. Try resizing, try copying & pasting -- note how it can't keep track of what layer you're looking at. Ugly, inflexible, proprietary.
  • GaryKing, on 10/12/2007, -14/+4This is more impressive; it's all Ajax: http://code.jalenack.com/periodic/
    And simple, just the way I like it :)
