Hello , i am dynamically creating html and i am creating zipfile like:
using(ZipFile file = new ZipFile()){
file.AddEntry(''SomeFileName''+'''.html',''<div>This is Saad</div>'');
}
and than saving the zip file on output stream. Its working fine , zip file download option gets pop up in the browser and is downloaded wherever user saves it

MyZip.zip-> myhtml1

What i need to do is that i want to add a folder and add html into it and than zipit. I can't specify the path for the folder neither i have html on disk that i can map it because html is generating dynamically. Can any one suggest some solution ??

Have you tried including the folder name in the file name parameter?
file.AddEntry("myFolder1/myhtml1.html", "<div>This is Saad</div>");

Include the folder name in the file name parameter:

C#

file.AddEntry("myFolder1/myhtml1.html", "<div>This is Saad</div>");

It doesn't matter if you use a forward slash (/) or a backslash (\) for the path separator, as the code will fix up the path as necessary. However, to use a backslash from C#, you'd either need to escape it, or use a verbatim string:

C#

// Escape it:
file.AddEntry("myFolder1\\myhtml1.html", "<div>This is Saad</div>");

// or use a verbatim string:
file.AddEntry(@"myFolder1\myhtml1.html", "<div>This is Saad</div>");
