i need to show information from an html file within a block...how would i do this? thanks

Your best bet is to experiment. Go to your Nuke Admin then to Blocks.

Down where you add a Blocks, give it a name, then put your HTML in the respective box below. Don't select a block from your drop down menu like you usually would.

Set it for Admin View only, then save it.

Playing around is the best way to learn, Just backup first.

ok i can't just paste the html code from the html file to the textbox in the block admin page because it is a file that is generated every 5 minutes...
this is what i have so far...
i made a block-Myblock.php file in the /blocks folder...and wrote:
include("myfile.html");

for some reason the content of myfile.html is displayed outside of the block in the main page... anymore help please?

I did it manually. First, make a new file in your favorite editor.

Leave it blank and save it as block-BLOCK_NAME.php

Of course, delete BLOCK_NAME and enter the name you wish.

Upload it into your Block folder.

Go to the Admin Section and make a new block. Select your newly created file and click CREATE.

Now, open the file that you just made blank. I suggest you download other block.php pages and experiment to get the desired html code. It is a little different.

I've had that same exact issue before with he blcok contents being outside the block.

You need to look at another block code and compare it to yours.
