Bridgeworks tutorial

In this tutorial we will create a simple project that has an html page that contains the Bridgeworks™ player.

Creating the main html page

Launch the text editor of your choice. Create a file called default.html and paste the following content:
<html> <head> <title>My first Bridgeworks project</title> </head> <body> <object ID="Bridgeworks" classid="CLSID:3E1A7D52-C16E-4E94-AF5F-E6C1759F736B" codebase="http://www.bridgeborn.com/Bridgeworks/bin/Bridgeworks220101.cab#version=2,2,0,101"> <param name="scene" value=""></param> <param name="width" value="500"></param> <param name="height" value="500"></param> </object > </body> </html>
The object tag defines the parameters for the Bridgeworks™ player including the codebase, scene, width, and height.
- codebase references the path to latest version of the Bridgeworks™ player.
- scene is a path to the Bridgeworks™ xml file that defines a Bridgeworks™ scene (e.g. value=”./BwContent/myFirstBwScene.xml”). Leaving its value empty, as we have done here, will load the Bridgeworks™ player onto the page without a scene.
- width, currently set to 500, specifies the width (in pixels) of the Bridgeworks™ player.
- height, currently set to 500, specifies the height (in pixels) of the Bridgeworks™ player.

So far we have defined the bare minimum required to load the Bridgeworks™ player onto a webpage. The following is what the page should look like in a web browser:
