Simplest way is using ng-include. If you need to use the line breaks in the text file within your view wrap in a <pre> tag

<h3>Terms</h3>
<ng-include src="'terms.txt'"></ng-include>

OR

<pre ng-include src="'terms.txt'"></pre>

@Charlieti thanks for the demo above. It works well. But i cant get it to work on my side. here is the code i have and it shows a jumbuton-like area with a grey color and nothing inside. It also scrolls up and down but its all grey. I dont why . <div ng-controller="FooterCtrl"> <h3>Terms</h3></p> <pre><ng-include src="'terms.txt'"></ng-include></pre> </div>
not the extra quotes inside src .. looks strange but is needed if want to load from server url
yes sorry, i tried that too
not sure why...is that the right path to the file? Can inspect the actual ajax request in browser dev tools network tab to see if it is made and succeeds and what is returned
I always get the error that ng-include is not a known element.
