Ideally just a bit of javascript that does itI've developed something that sends my home IP address to a file on a server via FTP whenever it changes. What I want to do now is to create a web page which automatically incorporates the file contents as a link.

If your server supports ASPits waaaaaay easier doing it that way.
See this file for an explanation. There's PHP and CFM versions also but most servers I work with are Microsplat so I use ASP.
Just save the page as pagename.asp or pagename.shtml or it won't work.

I really need to do it in javascript if I canBecause my free ISP webspace doesn't have any scripting capability, so I need something client side. I suppose I could make a little Flash applet that does it.

Flash would be even easier.Although your visitors will need to have Flash installed. Not so much of a problem nowadays though. I wrote this for a nightlub that I do work for. It reads from a text file. If you want I can send you the basic .fla file with the actionscript.
