Question: Content - reference a text file?

I'm the webmaster for my Model Train organization (http://seacoastnmra.org/TestSite/)

To manage the site's content, several people will be in charge of certain content. Now, they could write up something and send it to me and I would add it to the site.

I was thinking it may be easier for the person to write up an RTF document and FTP it to the site. The web page would automatically show the file as part of the pages content.

Does this make sense?

My question is, is there a way with an HTML snippet to display a file.

Thanks,

Hi Rob,

that doesn't make much sense. They would have to save it as a .html file, not a .rtf. You would have to embed them into your site with an iFrame. So you would have to edit the site anyway. So much better if they just send you an e-mail and you do copy&paste.

Or you have them editing the site if they have a Mac with iWeb

If you would use WordPress they could all edit the site or you could set up an e-mail address and whatever gets e-mailed to that address will be posted on the site. That doesn't work with iWeb.
