Logfile to website

[dosbox]

Hi guys, tough question here.

I'm wondering(I've never seen it before), if there is a way to print the logfiles of the console to a website in a specific frame. I know how to read a .txt file, and stuff, that works. However I stumble upon 2 problems

1: SRCDS only allows you to write logfiles to the game directory.
2: I don't think I can read a .log file with for example; file_get_contents(in PHP)
I tried linking two files from my /www/ a .txt file to the .log file, that didn't work either.
I am however able to display ping, ip, players etc, any way I can do this for console output?

Is there any other way, or a solution to print the console output to my website?

I have some logs (not the console log but the principle still applies) that are viewable in the admin section of my website. All I did to achieve this was create a scheduled task (I'm running Windows) to copy and append the log files from the game server logs folder to my www/logs folder.

Its not quite real time (as I don't need that) but it works well enough. Perhaps you could try something like that?

Possibly, but ideally I want my server to display realtime console logfiles to my websites, anyone else?

for the ask of anything or anyone else you are better to over web and Google there as no posts yet here .. or you may get a fair clue with the suggestion posted earlier .. as I'm going to get started as per the suggestions there..

This is possible with ASP/.NET as TCAdmin v2 offers it in their software. I don't know about php though.

Would an update time of, say, 5 seconds really be to far off real time?
