Where do you put or export the html? directly to the Response object or to the system directory of your web server?

i explain to u what is my problem.....
this is code behind page code.
button_click(object sender, EventArgs e) //event....
dataset = bal.storedprocedure(); //stored procedure call....
ToHTML(dataset.Tables[0], "SoftwareList.html", Page.Response); //function call......

public void ToHTML(DataTable dt, string filename, HttpResponse response)
{var html = ConvertToHtmlFile(dt);
}

public static string ConvertToHtmlFile(DataTable GetTable)
{//here i am using string builder
myBuilder.Append("<html>");
myBuilder.Append("<head>");
myBuilder.Append("<title>");
myBuilder.Append("Page-");
myBuilder.Append(Guid.NewGuid().ToString());
myBuilder.Append("</title>");

Hi Dahale.
I think you should read more about anchor link in html. Check this out. HTML Links[^]

To give more an example, your exported html should look like this

HTML

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
    <title>Export</title>
</head>
<body>
    <a id="top" href="#table1">Table 1</a>
    <a href="#table2">Table 2</a> 
    <span>Start of Table 1</span>
    <table id="table1">
         <tr>
            <td>
                Cell 1
            </td>
            <td>
                Cell 1
            </td>
            <td>
                Cell 1
            </td>
        </tr>
    </table>

    <span>Start of Table 2</span>
    <table id="table2">
         <tr>
            <td>
                Cell 1
            </td>
            <td>
                Cell 1
            </td>
            <td>
                Cell 1
            </td>
        </tr>
    </table>
    <a href="#top">Go to Top</a>
</body>
</html>

Please observe the href of Table 1 and Table 2 link they are pointing to the id of another html element. When the user click on that link, the browser will automatically navigate to that element.

        </tr>
    </table>
    <a href="#top">Go to Top</a>
</body>
</html>

Please observe the href of Table 1 and Table 2 link they are pointing to the id of another html element. When the user click on that link, the browser will automatically navigate/scroll to target element, the above example it will navigate/scroll to table1 element.
