I tried to make the 'href' attribute as short as possible. It works when I want to see the answer, but doesn't work the other way around.
If I go back to the question, it brings me to http://localhost:3000/?side=answer instead.
Why?
cards.js
const express = require('express')
const router = express.Router()
const { cards } = require('../data/flashcardsData.json').data
router.get('/:id', (req, res) => {
const { side } = req.query
const { id } = req.params
const text = cards[id][side]
const { hint } = cards[id]
const templateData = (side == 'question') ? { id, side, text, hint } : { id, side, text }
res.render('card', templateData)
})
module.exports = router
card.pug
extends layout.pug
block content
section#content
h2= text
if hint
p
i Hint: #{hint}
if (side==='question')
//- this gets me to http://localhost:3000/cards/3/?side=answer which is expected
a(href=`/?side=answer`) Show Answer
else
//- this gets me to http://localhost:3000/?side=answer which is not expected
