why not something like this
```php
#make a php file called frame.php
#than use the iframe code used above
#replace src="textfile.text"
#with
# src="frame.php" with the following code
$file ="sometext.txt";
$fh = fopen($file,'r') or die ("couldnt open file to read");
$file_size =filesize($file);
$file_content = fread($fh,$file_size);
fclose ($fh);
echo '
echo '';
echo $file_content;
echo '
';
```
