How can I save a previous URL in Flask?
I am creating a book store and one of the functionalities is that once I am on a page, I would like to filter it more and only show 10 or 20 results per page.
<form action="{{ url_for('show_10') }}">
<div class="dropdown">
<button class="btn btn-secondary dropdown-toggle" type="button" id="dropdownMenu2" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
Show Results
</button>
<div class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenu2">
<button class="dropdown-item" value = "{{ request.path }}" type="button">Show 10 </button>
</div>
</div>
</form>
So what I want to do is if the current path is a certain route i.e. "/sort_by_rating", then it should go to a function that will only shows results as 10 per page for that search.
@app.route('/show_10', methods = ['GET', 'POST'])
def show_10():
page = request.args.get('page', 1, type=int)
print(request.data['name'])
if request.method == 'POST':
if "/sort_by_bestseller" in request.form:
books = Book.query.filter(Book.best_seller == True).paginate(page=page, per_page=10)
if "/sort_by_rating" in request.form:
books = Book.query.order_by(Book.rating).paginate(page=page, per_page=10)
if "/sort_by_date" in request.form:
books = Book.query.order_by(Book.date).paginate(page=page, per_page=10)
return render_template('search_by_author.html', books=books)
I am very new to web development. I am not sure if my logic is correct. However when I click on the button to show 10 results, it just stays on the current page and no changes happen. Any help is appreciated.

Your function only shows the result if the request is a post. But you never told your form to actually send a post. You need to do that with the method attribute:
<form action="{{ url_for('show_10') }}" method="POST">

Yes, I fixed that issue however I am still getting the same results. When I click on the button, it does not move to another page.
