Hi I was hoping that maybe someone can help me out:
I created a bash script that connects to my free webhost via FTP and uploads a file.txt into the home directory. What I'm looking to do is to read this text and display it on my index.html site.
Looking around I seen the following script:
jQuery.get('path/to/file/on/server.txt', null, function(data, status) {
// your file contents are in 'data'
});
how would I output 'data'?
Or is there any other method someone can recommend?
thank you.

$.get("file.txt", function(data){
alert("Data Loaded: " + data);
});Edit: taken from the jQuery documentation

Get the contents of file.txt and display inside a div with id "id":
$.get("file.txt", function(data){
$("#id").text(data);
});
