I have an html paragraph (inside a div) in which I want to display a simple fixed text. The text is a bit long so I'd rather the text will be in a seperate txt file.
something like
<div><p txt=file.txt></p></div> Can I do something like that?

To add a new paragraph in HTML, place your insertion mark cursor into the HTML document where you want to add the new paragraph. Then type the paragraph start tag: <p>. Then type the paragraph's text. At the end of the new paragraph's text, type the end tag: </p>.
HTML 5 provides a standard way to interact with local files with the help of File API. The File API allows interaction with single, multiple as well as BLOB files. The FileReader API can be used to read a file asynchronously in collaboration with JavaScript event handling.
You can do something like that in pure html using an <object> tag:<div><object data="file.txt"></object></div>
This method has some limitations though, like, it won't fit size of the block to the content - you have to specify width and height manually. And styles won't be applied to the text.
