simple php text file viewer

mattl

i have a basic image viewer for my site...

<html>
<?php

$error=0;
if($img == '') {
$error=1;
echo 'No image specified';
}
?>
<head>
<title>Image Viewer - <?php echo $img; ?></title>
</head>
<body>
<center>
<img src="<?php echo $img; ?>" alt="<?php echo $img; ?>">
<br>
<p>Image Source:<? echo "$img"; ?></p>
</body>
</html>

how can i mirror this simplicity with a simple php text file viewer?

cheers,
matt

In order to display a text file within php page, you can just read the file content and output it to the page.
You can use include() function for the simplest way or file functions for another way.
Is that what you need?

its ok, got it sorted with this

<?php
$contents = file_get_contents("$inc");
echo ($contents);
?>

thanks anyway 😉
