Getting Started

Step 1. Place this script shown below in your website’s header tag.

Sample Code – Click to expand / collapse

<script>
    Protect_Player = function(Container, Login, Password){
        A = 1;//Attempts
        C = document.getElementById(Container);
        C.style.display = "none";
        L = document.getElementById(Login);
        L.innerHTML = "Login to view this video.<br/>Password: <input id='"+ L + "_PW' type='password'/><button id='"+ L + "_BTN'>Login</button>";
        L_PW = document.getElementById(L+"_PW");
        L_BTN = document.getElementById(L+"_BTN");
        L_BTN.onclick = function(){
            if(A < 3){
                if(L_PW.value == Password){
                    C.style.display = "block";
                    L.style.display = "none";
                }else{
                    A++;
                    alert("The password you entered was incorrect, please try again.");
                    L_PW.value = "";
                    L_PW.focus();
                }
            }else{
                L.innerHTML = "Login Failed";
            }
        }
    }   
</script>

Step 2. Place this script in the body of your web page where you wish the player to show up.

Sample Code – Click to expand / collapse

<div id="Container">
    Player Embed Code Here
</div>
<div id="Login"></div>
<script>Protect_Player("Container", "Login",  "Password");</script>

Step 3. Log into your EZWebPlayer account and grab your players embed code. This will work with the Iframe and Javascript embed codes.

And replace the line from Step 2 that saysPlayer Embed Code Here with your player code.

Sample Code – Click to expand / collapse

<div id="Container">
    <iframe src="https://ezwp.tv/iframe.htm?v=0000000&w=600&h=450" style="border-width:0;width:600px;height:450px" scrolling="no" allowFullScreen></iframe>
</div>
<div id="Login"></div>
<script>Protect_Player("Container", "Login",  "Password");</script>
