text file into textfile

[nirvana]

Please give your suggestions


I've got a web page that have a <textarea> that I need to populate with
what is in a text file. For now, I just want to Read the text file into the textarea, but I just can't seem to get it to work. Here's what I've got:

Code:
Function getFile(fileThis)
dim Filename

Filename = "someFile.txt"
'format is data1|data2

Const ForReading = 1, ForWriting = 2, ForAppending = 3
Const TristateUseDefault = -2, TristateTrue = -1, TristateFalse = 0

' Create a filesystem object
Dim fso
set fso = server.createObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

' Map the logical path to the physical system path
Dim Filepath
Filepath = Server.MapPath(Filename)

if fso.FileExists(Filepath) Then
' Get a handle to the file

Basde upon the assumption that your getFile function works, all you are doing is assigning the value of "getFile" to "Thisfile" with the help of this code:

<%=getFile(fileThis)%>


Have a gud time
