Loading Dynamic text in HTML?

  • I've had a look at "Dynamic Page / Replacing Content | CSS-Tricks" by by: Chris Coyier, however I have a project with somewhat a little twist. Client needs to be able to ubdate text from microsoft word doc. or .txt file. I'm working in dreamwever. The website needs to be strictly HTML. I've googled this subject with no satisfactory results. Any help is welcome. Thankyou in advance.
  • You can't do that with HTML, which is static content by definition.
    However, you could, with some scripting (bash? perl? depends what you have available/what you know already) "dinamically" generate html code based on the input txt/doc.

    In any other case you have to go with PHP, or some other form of dynamic-generated HTML code.
  • Realy appreciate your help Kermet, say I choose PHP, how do I go about it?
