    <description>&lt;P&gt;It sounds like your question is more about general web programming than anything specific to Dropbox, so I'm afraid I can't be too helpful. You may be better helped on a general web programming forum.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;So far, I see you are able to retrieve the data from the link. From there you may need to interpret or convert that data (e.g., since it's a docx in this case), and then use JavaScript to update that textarea to display the desired content.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;It sounds like you're using &lt;A href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers/chooser" target="_self"&gt;the&amp;nbsp;Dropbox Chooser&lt;/A&gt; with a "direct" link type to access the file data for the chosen file.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I see that you already have the Chooser part working, and you're able to retrieve the file data from the returned link. What you do with the data from there is up to you, but note that the&amp;nbsp;Dropbox link will just return the raw data for the chosen file.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;In this case, that will be the raw .docx file data. The .docx file format isn't plain text though, so it won't be directly human readable. You may need to use some third party library for reading the docx format and getting out whatever information you're looking for.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
