Hi all,

I have a text file (lets use [http://www.somedomain.com/text.txt](http://www.somedomain.com/text.txt)) and I would like to display this text file in a HTML page. I know this must be extremly simpl y. I`ve tried <a scr= url("http://naomieharris.akdmx.com/count.txt")> </a> and tried it with php (although php is supported, it would be accepted). My guess is the easier the HTML the more likely is the probability that it`ll be displayd.

Any ideas? thanks in advance for your help,
