How to display text from a file

Time:02-22

I have a text file on my server, which I would like to display in a Label (or similar element). What is the best way to do this? If possible, I would like it to be formatted the same way as it is in the text file.

(I was thinking it would be similar to using "src" for images, but turns out you can't do that).

I would try reading the file with PHP, process the text (split in parts, cut, whatever) and set up an array with the required texts.You can call it later with using the array.

Finally ur code should look something like this:

<img src="<?=$arrayText['test1]?>"  alt="...">

You will need to have a local web server (NodeJS, Python, etc.) to serve your local assets and then either render the HTML file dynamically (eg: via Express for NodeJS) or make a fetch request (eg: fetch('/path/to/file.txt'))
