thanks
Is JavaScript can do this?

You don't need JavaScript. Just put in the line I gave you and it will call in the text file immediately.

I used a cms that build a static web page.i want to displaying all of text without scrolling therefore i have to change the frame size Each time .Doing this is hard for me!?

It may well be impossible, since scrolling is based on height of content vs. height of container (assuming you meant vertical scrolling). This, in turn, depends on the width of the iframe and on the styling of its content (font, size, line height & spacing and so on). Is your iframe width set as a percentage/emcount or as an absolute number of pixels?
