If this HTML is a menu item, you can use an iframe wrapper menu type.

It will appear as an article, keeping the original HTML formatting.

> I have an HTML file that is regularly updated from an external source (A
> Word document that is saved out to HTML whenever the author updates it) -
> for practical reasons, it's easier to keep the file in Word rather than as
> a Joomla Content Article.
>
> I'd like to include / "insert" the HTML file into a Joomla Article, so
> that the file appears as an article within Joomla - also, as the HTML file
> is updated, the Joomla Article automatically includes the latest version by
> pulling directly from the HTML file on the server.
>
> I tried Sourcerer and the php function "require($DOCUMENT_ROOT . "path to
> file/include-file.html");", but this doesn't seem to be working - it comes
> up blank.  I'm not sure if HTML Server Side Includes will work within
> Joomla - does anyone have any ideas on how to pull / nest an external HTML
> file into a Joomla article?
>
> Thank you!
