I have a web app that creates an employee.txt file, how do I go about printing the contents of the file from a form?

<%-- confirmation.jsp --%>
<%@ page session="false" import="java.util.*" %>
<%@page import="java.io.InputStreamReader"%>
<%@page import="java.io.BufferedReader"%>
<%@page import="java.io.DataInputStream"%>
<%@page import="java.io.FileInputStream"%>
<%--Retrieve the Employee and Hiring beans from the Request scope--%>
<jsp:useBean id="employee" scope="request" class="domain.Employee"/>
<jsp:useBean id="hiring" scope="request" class="domain.Hiring"/>

<html>
    <head>
        <title>New Employee Hire</title>
        <link rel=alternate media=print href="Employees.txt">
    </head>
    <body bgcolor="Azure">
        <p><b><h1>Employee Hiring: Confirmation Message</h1></b></p>
        <p>Name :
            <b><jsp:getProperty name="employee" property="name"/></b></p>
        <p>Job Title :
            <b><jsp:getProperty name="employee" property="jobTitle"/></b></p>
        <p>Year :
            <b><jsp:getProperty name="employee" property="yearHired" /></b></p>
        <p>Gender :
            <b><jsp:getProperty name="employee" property="gender" /></b></p>

        <form action="index.jsp" method="post">
            <input type="submit" value="More" name="more" />

           ***I would like to print the employee.txt file here ***
        
        </form>
    </body>
</html>

Is there a way to do this in HTML? Copy that method/technique to your code.
