This demos the problem.    Three methods of loading a ggb applet compared.

1.  uses javascript function Most complicated method, but reloads and can call click script to rescale

2.  Defines a variable.  Doesnt reload, can't call click script to rescale

3.  directly loads geogebra_applet()  Reloads, but can't call click scripts or get values from the applet

  Tried to revert to geogebra_applet() method with parameters, but couldn't make it work.    Restoring to previous version... geogebra_function() attempt.
