ros3djs is not loading my urdf.
Hello, I have a urdf file for an ABB Irb140 robot, I sucesfully displayed it using rviz but when I tried to follow the "Visualizing a URDF" tutorial ( http://wiki.ros.org/ros3djs/Tutorials... ) the html doesn't show anything. I have tried a lot of things reading a lot of answers about the issue but I can't get it work (I'm a newby in the topic).
The important parts of my urdf.html code are the headers, I don't know if I'm using them right, and the URDF client part:

var urdfClient = new ROS3D.UrdfClient({
ros : ros,
tfClient : tfClient,
path : 'http://localhost:80/',
rootObject : viewer.scene,
loader : ROS3D.COLLADA_LOADER
});
I have tried using both the ROS3D.COLLADA_LOADER and ROS3D.COLLADA_LOADER_2.
I'm also using apache 2 and I have there the urdf.html and the meshes but the html code simply can't load them. In other hand I launch these files.
1.- roslaunch abb_irb140_support nodos.launch
<launch>
<arg name="KINECT1" default="$(optenv KINECT1 false)" />
<arg name="KINECT2" default="$(optenv KINECT2 false)" />
<group>
<param name="robot_description" command="$(find xacro)/xacro '$(find abb_irb140_support)/urdf/irb140.urdf' --inorder KINECT1:=$(arg KINECT1) KINECT2:=$(arg KINECT2)" />
</group>
<param name="use_gui" value="true" />
<node name="robot_state_publiher" pkg="robot_state_publisher" type="state_publisher" />
<node name="joint_state_publiher" pkg="joint_state_publisher" type="joint_state_publisher" />
<node name="tf2_web_republiher" pkg="tf2_web_republisher" type="tf2_web_republisher" />
</launch>
2.-roslaunch rosbridge_server rosbridge_websocket.launch
Both of them work perfectly well and show the robot model in rviz. One thing that I don't know is if I need to launch the file from inside the apache server.
Inside the urdf file the filename is something like this:
"package://robot_description/meshes/irb140/visual/base_link.dae"
The meshes are in /var/www/html/robot_description/meshes/irb140/visual/ and if I write http://localhost/robot_description/me... they can be accesed but again the files are not loaded in the html.
I hope someone could help me with this, I have been stucked with this problem several days now. Thank you I will appreciate any help.
