title: How to display a text file on a webpage with original formatting
body: <p>So im pretty annoyed i cant get this one simple little task completed after doing PHP for the entire night.. but the server im hosting on wont allow you to href text files directly.. I mean, it will, but it will display a blank window.. So i decided i'd build a php for the href and that php can have a statement to include the file.. so far ive tried:</p>
  
  <pre><code>include();
  require();
  file_get_contents();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>They all work, but they all ignore formatting and continuously print the text file across the screen.. How can i print the file with its original formatting? I essentially need it to worry about new lines.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks guys </p>
