How do you view eDrawing files on a web application?

Question

I'd like to create a feature to view eDrawing files like .eprt, .easm, or .step in a web application. There's already applications to view files like these for mobile apps, but that's not what I want.

ex: http://www.solidworks.com/sw/products/edrawings-mobile.htm

If there's a framework out there to help me do this, that'd be helpful as well.

You could embed the object in your web page as per the following:

<OBJECT 
    align=middle 
    width="800"
    height="600"
    ID="EModelViewControl"
    CLASSID="CLSID:22945A69-1191-4DCF-9E6F-409BDE94D101">  
    <PARAM name="Filename" value= "E:\Test\Example.EASM"/>   
    <PARAM name="EnableFeatures" value="16385"/>
</OBJECT>

OR you can download the eDrawings Viewer and save as .htm, which embeds the file into one large htm file.

Hope this helps someone out there!
