How can I pass text from a form in an html file to a url route in my python file using flask?

I'm building a website in python with flask.

How can I pass text from a form in an html file to a url route in my python file?

I have a search button that passes text to a python 'page' which queries a database and then render_templates an html file with the relevant object from my database (which works)...

      <form class="d-flex" action="/search" method="POST">
        <input id="search" name="search" class="form-control me-2" type="search" placeholder="Search" aria-label="Search">
        <button class="btn btn-outline-light" type="submit"><i class="fa-solid fa-magnifying-glass"></i></button>
      </form>
@pages.route('/search', methods=['POST'])
def search_page():
    search = request.form.get('search')
    search_url = search.replace(' ', '-').lower()

    query database with 'search_url' and get search_object...
    
    return render_template('search_object.html', search_object=search_object)

My issue is that I want my url to be whatever the search_url text is, and not static '/search'

So when I search 'example search text' I would go to a page with a url of 'example.com/example-search-text'

I know you can pass a variable with curly brackets / to the page.route /< > ...

So I guess I'm asking, how do I take the search text and link it to the search action in my html file?

The number of nodes and edges I calculated manually and by a method provided by networkx library dont match

I am trying to analyse a graph using networkx library in Python. I have implemented a function that returns the nodes and edges of that graph. After that I counted the number of nodes and edges by implementing the len() function for nodes and edges, which gave me 17 for both nodes and edges. However, when I used the method graph.number_of_nodes() of networkx library it gave me 53. My code: import pandas as pd import networkx as nx import matplotlib.pyplot as plt header_list = ["a","b","w"] E =pd.read_csv("aves-barn-swallow-contact-network.edges",sep=" ",header= None,names=header_list) # print(E.head()) # prints first few rows of the csv file G = nx.from_pandas_edgelist(E,"a","b",["w"]) nx.draw(G) plt.show() class GraphAnalyse: #finding nodes and edges def nodeEdge(self,Graph): nodes = Graph.nodes() edges = Graph.edges() ...
