Hello

I would like to make a button so that when the user clicks on it the contents of a .txt file pop-up in a new window. I want to do this for a band website so that when the user clicks on the button "lyrics" a window will pop-up with the lyrics for a song which are contained in a .txt file. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank You

I saw the same tutorial also but is this not a tutorial for opening another html page? I would like to open a text file instead.

you use the same method. Just open a text file instead of an HTML file.
