I have this html file. I want to create a text file through c# and save this value on it.
index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<form onsubmit="" action="">
<label>Username</label>
<input id="username" type="text" />
<input id="submitBtn" type="submit" value="Confirm" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
If your requirement is to save html string to a file, you can use:
File.WriteAllText(@"C:\words.txt", htmlString);
If you already have an HTML file and want to save it as a new file with .txt extension, use un-lucky's answer.
A lot of answers all ready here , but you confusing with word "linking".
In c# you can access any asp.net control in its class file , and also html control by adding runat=server into html control but it have to be in aspx page.
Either switch to aspx to accomplish it in c# or in case of .html file you have to use javascript
You can insert below code in your html file and trigger it through a button
To get HTML of a page into variable
var v=$("body").html()
And than function to save it into a text file
function writeToFile(v)
{
var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
var fh = fso.OpenTextFile("data.txt", 8, false, 0);
fh.WriteLine(v);
fh.Close();
}
Pass var v into writeToFile()
You can make it through File.Copy() method, Where you have to pass the path of the .html file as source path, the path of the .txt as the destination path. then the copy method will create the required text file in the specified path. consider the following code:
File.Copy("index.html","path\\index.txt");
