You could do it this way:
Put the content of the file into a variable:
<?php
$fp = fopen("$filename", "r");
$content = "<!-- Insert Start -->";
if($fp) {
while(! feof($fp)) {
$content .= fread($fp, 1024);
}
}
?>
Insert the variable into a div tag:
<div id="content">
<?php
echo $content;
?>
</div>
Then create a style sheet that defines the properties of the content
DIV:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
#content {
height: 100px;
width: 100px;
float: left
}
-->
</style>
The above collection of code would include the contents of the specified
file/url into a box to the left of the screen, with any other text
wrapping around it. You could do pretty much what you want with the DIV
though, CSS Rocks :)
Does that answer the question?
Cheers,
Jason
