    Hi,

    I am looking for a way to populate an HTML table from an external
    local text file which looks like this:

    DATE/TIME LAT. LON. DEPTH. ML.
    -------------------- ---------- ---------- ------- -------
    21/03/2005-04:06:03 XX,XX XX,XX 171 3,42
    21/03/2005-12:23:53 XX,XX XX,XX 500 5,4
    21/03/2005-12:43:10 XX,XX XX,XX 553 5,38
    21/03/2005-18:47:51 XX,XX XX,XX 162 3,91
    21/03/2005-19:29:49 XX,XX XX,XX 500 3,51
    21/03/2005-20:04:51 XX,XX X,X 75 3,72

    The file could have more rows (DATA) that I show here. The file is
    provided to me on a daily basis and I have to update a web page daily
    with the contents of the file.

    I considered using JavaScript embedded in the HTML page but I am a
    newbie on what scripting for the web it refers.

    How can I populate the HTML table with this text file which changes
    everyday.

    Also, is it possible to use php client-side only, without a server?

    Your help, suggestions and feedback questions will be much
    appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Alex.
