Don't do a button; use a link - you can style one to look like a button, something like this CSS:

#btn {
   text-decoration: none;
   padding: 5px 10px;
   background-color: #4287f5;
   color: white;
   outline: none;
   border: none;
   border-radius: 5px;
}

<a id="btn" href="/index.html">Hello world!</a>

Result:

You just got a nice looking "button". Also, this is the correct/traditional way to do it. An actual button would not let you open in a new tab, and it doesn't act as a link, and it breaks the back button.

@codingjlu Thank you so much for the help.(¬‿¬)

@Satkrithi np :)

Sure about this
But you can create an <a> tag and remove the text decorations, add border and it will look like a button.
Then you can use href="index.html"

sure will try @FishballNooodle

@Satkrithi
text-decorations:None
border : 10 5 10 5
border-radius: 10px

@FishballNooodle are you sure? I have tried doing it but it is still not working

It is not working because some of your pages don't have any code.
For example, Thank you contact.html and Topics.html.

@Coder100 In that case, it would show blank page but here it is showing page not found.
