How can we navigate between pages in a report ? for eg: we have 4 pages in a report and a prompt page. We take values from the prompt page and then go to the table of contents(TOC) page. we have 3 TOC list. When we click any of those 3 it needs to take u to that section. We also need to provide home, next etc links after each section.

- what the customer is looking at is that it should be a HTML page with all the options. We worked on this but we are not able to make the TOC links work in HTML format. It works fine in PDF format or if we save the HTML format also it works. Then we tried bookmarks it also has the same problem.Can you help me with any solutions that aware of for this problem ?

The simple answer is there are no solutions. Live HTML reports will only support TOC within the same page. 

Saved HTML reports work for that reason, the report is saved and concatenated into a single page.

What you could do is cheat a little. Instead of having a single report you can build a series of repoorts. The TOC, next, home and prev links could all be drillthroughs.
