opening file content in new window

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Dec 08.2007

Hey guys,
I’m stuck on a problem that involves mostly php and some javascript, I believe. I’m having my site output filenames and folders for a given directory. I have a “create new file” link at the top which opens up a popup to create and save a new file in the directory. Next to the listed filenames, I have an “edit” link. Right now that pops open the same “create new file” link. I want it to copy in the contents of the filename next to the edit link. Does that all make sense? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Mike

Basically I need to load the contents of a given file into the editable content area of a new window that pops up. Does anyone know how I can do that?

Thanks

Mike

[code=php]
<textarea name="edit" value="" rows=15 cols=75><?php echo file_get_contents("test.txt") ?></textarea>[/code]
