How to get the content of an html file – PHP

I am trying to retrieve the code from an HTML file in PHP.

And display it in a textarea.

Example: if I have a file with a div and a foo h1 in it I want my textarea to appear like this.

After a few hours of research, I can’t find a good result.

Here is my sample html file

And I want this html file to be readable in a textara that I styled.

Example right here of stylized file

Thank you in advance for your lights !

Exemple result display

I tried to use fopen in order to be able to open the file and read it but I cannot convert my string into an html tag.

    You should use readfile():

    readfile("/path/to/file");

    This will read the file and send it to the browser in one command. This is essentially the same as:

    echo file_get_contents("/path/to/file");

    except that file_get_contents() may cause the script to crash for large files, while readfile() won’t.

    Your can try using jQuery, below is the example code:

    <html> 
  <head> 
    <script> 
    $(function(){
      $("#includedContent").load("b.html"); 
    });
    </script> 
  </head> 

  <body> 
     <div id="includedContent"></div>
  </body> 
</html>
