<?php
// get contents of a file into a string
$filename = "/path/to/your.txt";
$handle = fopen($filename, "r");
$contents = fread($handle, filesize($filename));
fclose($handle);
echo "$contents";

Thanks BeeDev

 

I've tried it but it did not work. I'm getting the following error.

 

 

Warning: fopen(c: mpp\htdocs est.txt) [function.fopen]: failed to open stream: Invalid argument in C:\xampp\htdocs\bash.php on line 6

 

Warning: filesize() [function.filesize]: stat failed for c: mpp\htdocs est.txt in C:\xampp\htdocs\bash.php on line 8

 

Warning: fread(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in C:\xampp\htdocs\bash.php on line 8

 

Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in C:\xampp\htdocs\bash.php on line 10

BeeDev ,

 

 

I've resolved this issue. I just removed the file complete path now its...

 

 

$filename = "test.txt";

 

 

and the problem resolved.

The problem there was that you were using a local path. You should use the complete URL, such as http://www.host.com/path/to/file.txt, or a relative path as you have done in your last post.
