output dynamically generated ASP.NET page to HTML

Question

I would like to output a dynamically generated ASP.NET page with a form to HTML to be stored on server. Parameters are passed to the page through Server.transfer. Ideally I would like to save the page as html after the user has entered data on the form and clicked a button to submit the page.

You can save html content of your page in two ways: 1. Save part of page which is inside some container control like div. StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(); StringWriter tw = new StringWriter(sb); HtmlTextWriter hw = new HtmlTextWriter(tw); divCtrl.RenderControl(hw); string str = sb.ToString(); Here the str variable will have html content which is inside divCtrl. Now you can save str to database or anywhere you want. 2. Save entire page content. The Render method is best place to do this. protected override void Render(HtmlTextWriter writer) { StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter(); HtmlTextWriter htmlWriter = new HtmlTextWriter(stringWriter); base.Render(htmlWriter); string strHTML = stringWriter.ToString(); } Here the strHTML variable will have your entire html page content.

for that you need to generate .html file itself. like string smsg = Your email content here: ; smsg +=  Test:  + abc; smsg +=  Test:  + xxx; smsg +=  Test:  + abx; smsg +=  ; smsg +=  Test ; later save the contents and create .html file

Your question is not clear for me!! Do you want to create pages (.aspx or .html) dynamically. Please clarify this.
