Hi, I would like to know if there is a way to insert the content of an external .txt files into the <body> without coding long scripts etc. and which will also update automatically if the file has been changed.

Something like this should do:

Script (uses jQuery)

$('body').load('path/filename.txt');

If the file changes, you will need the page to refresh in order to see the changes.
