Embedding a text file

[Samir Talwar]

Hi there. I'm writing a web site for my dad and I'm trying to embed
text from an external file into the document - I need a frames section
and a non-frames section and when one is changed it would be so much
easier if I didn't have to go through the code to change the content
every time my dad changed something. Any way to embed text?

Thanks,
Samir Talwar

The way it is meant to be:

<div>
<object data="plain.txt " type="text/plain"
width="100%" style="height: 10em">
<a href="plain.txt ">Embedded Text Document</a>
</object>
</div>

Set width and height accordingly (I've used CSS to specify the height).

So there is no real way to embed text into a web page. Thanks anyway!

no - the 'way' is virtual as explained in replies to you o/p

for 'real' embedding you need an axe
