Adding html contents from external text file

I have an external text file with some HTML code in it. This text file updates with updated HTML code (it's a cache from a widget on my wordpress site).

So, I want to echo the HTML into an area in my Phorum template.

Standard PHP Include, include once or jquery.load functions don't seem to work.

How I would I get the Phorum template to load the contents of this file and output them?

To answer my own question I was able to get it to work with a jquery.load function in the end.

standard includes will work as well.
