Hello,

I'm just too vague over my understanding as to what I know so far may be true or not. Suppose, I a text file stored on the server.

 

We all know that when a file stored on a server is opened for viewing, some bandwidth is consumned and the consumption increases with every refresh of the page and so on.

 

So if i use $.get on the client browser to reteieve the contents of the text file stored on the server, will it affect the server bandwidth consumption? I just want to make it clear that it is just a plain text file.

 

I'm looking  for all posibilities as how to retrieve  the contents of a  text file stored on the server from the client browser without necesarily having to consumned any server bandwidth.

 

thank you all in advance!
