I have an html table calendar with the dates set to buttons. When a user clicks on the button, the button will redirect them to the appointments page. However, I need it to pass the value of the button, set to its respective date, to the appointments page as well so the user can book a meeting on that date.
<button type="button" value = "1" onclick="window.location.href='{{ url_for( 'appointments') }}';">1</button> I would like to pass the value "1" to /appointments page when I click the button but I do not know how to do so. Is it possible to do this? Im doing this on flask python.
Appointments.html
{% extends 'base.html' %} {% block body %} <div class="container"> <form method="POST" action="/appointments"> <h2>Appointments</h2> <p> {{ form.start.label }}<br> {{ form.start }} </p> <p> {{ form.end.label }}<br> {{ form.end }} </p> <p> {{ form.description.label }}<br> {{ form.description }} </p> <p> {{ form.guestName.label }}<br> {{ form.guestName }} </p> <input type="submit"> <!-- <button class = "btn btn btn-primary btn block" type="submit">Set up</button> --> </form> </div> <!-- /container --> {% endblock %} Appointment route:
@app.route('/appointments', methods=['GET', 'POST']) def appointments(): form = AddAppointment() if form.is_submitted(): startingTime = datetime.datetime.strptime( form.start.data, '%H:%M').time() endingTime = datetime.datetime.strptime(form.end.data, '%H:%M').time() print(startingTime, endingTime) appt = Appointments(starttime=form.start.data, endtime=form.end.data, description=form.description.data, guestName=form.guestName.data) print(appt) db.session.add(appt) db.session.commit() return redirect('/dashboard') return render_template('appoitments.html', form=form)
