I need help.

I want the data in a text file to appear on the page where I include it. How do I go about doing it?

I'm assuming with php..

PHP Code:

<?php
$data = file_get_contents("textfile.txt");
echo "$data";
?>

<?
 
if ($f = fopen("/path/to/file.txt", "r")) {
  $file_data = "";
 
 while (!feof($f))
   $file_data .= fgets($f, 4096);           
 
 fclose($f);
}
 
echo $file_data;
?>

well i figured it out

<?php include('data.txt') ?>

that there does just what I want it to do.
