show textfile in browser

Hi guru's

I'm pretty new to webprogramming. I use VWD 2008 Express Edition.
I try to build a webpage and the content of that page is stored in a
textfile on the filesystem. That way I can change the content of my webpage
very easy. The problem is that I can't figure out how to show the content of
that textfile in my browser.

Any suggestions?

Thanx

Why? Start with a simple editor and learn!

Hi guru's

I'm pretty new to webprogramming. I use VWD 2008 Express Edition.
So it's highly likely that you are using ASP.NET. If that's the case, this
is the wrong group for you as it covers classic ASP, which is a completely
different technology. You are much more likely to get relevant help at
forums.asp.net. If you post there, make sure you specifiy the language you
are using, otherwise odds are that someone will provide a link to or work up
a nice example in a language that you don't know.
