Hi @Rajashree Kamath Bola ,

According to my research and testing , when we open the HTML file in the SharePoint Library, only the part of the HTML can be displayed, and JavaScript does not work, unfortunately, it is by default. As a workaround, you can input your code in Script Editor web part, and the JavaScript will working in the web part. You can follow these steps:

1.Go to Page ->>Click "New" ->> Click "Wiki Page"

2.Click "INSERT" ->> Web Part ->> Media and Content ->> Script Editor ->>Click "Add"

3.Click "Edit Web Part"

4.Click "EDIT SNIPPET"

5.Input your code and Click "Insert" ->> Click "OK" ->>Save the page

My test result (In my test, JavaScript works well) :

Hope it can help you. Thanks for your understanding.
