# GFSpotBase

The GFSpotBase is a basic class for locally played HTML spots and offers a variety of methods to communicate with the Grassfish Player.

- It’s a JavaScript Library, which you must integrate into the local website.
- You can use it with HTML Wizard spots and by HTML Basic spots.

## Insert the file

You can nest the file `gfSpotBase.js` in subdirectories, however, don’t edit it.

To insert the file into the website, use this script tag: `<script src="gfSpotBase.js"></script>`

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> Insert this script before any other scripts that relate to the player functionalities.

## Access methods

Don’t access the GFSpotBase methods until the JavaScript file has been initialized. To do so, use the body onload method:

```javascript
<body onload="init()">
  <script>
    function init() {
      alert(GFSpotBase.getVersion());
    }
  </script>
</body>
```
