Syntax issue grabbing form input value

[tmcmillan99]

Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong with the syntax below? I am trying to grab the value (email) from the input to use as a variable to pass as a url parameter.

    <div class="flex flex-col">
      <form id="form-member" method="GET">
        <label>Enter Member's Email:</label>
        <input name="member" type="text" class="col-span-2 p-4" />
      </form>
      {% set query = request.query_dict.get("member") %}
      {% set members = crm_objects("azimuth", "member_email=" + query, "sfcontact_id") %}
    </div>
    <div class="w-full mt-10">
      <a class="view-btn text-white uppercase" href="/dashboard?member_email={{ query }}&sf_id={{ member.sfcontact_id }}" target="_blank">View Dashboard</a>
    </div>

Thanks,

Terry McMillan

I was able to figure out the correct syntax. Posting the working code for reference...

    {% set queryparam = "" %}
    {% if request.query_dict.member != "" %}
      {% set queryparam = queryparam~"member_email="~request.query_dict.member|urldecode %}
    {% endif %}
    {% set members = crm_objects("azimuth", queryparam, "sfcontact_id") %}
    {% if request.query == "" %}
    <div class="w-full mt-10 hidden">
    </div>
    {% elif members.results == [] %}
    <div class="w-full mt-10 no-member">
      <h4>
        No member was found.
      </h4>
    </div>
    {% else %}
      {% for member in members.results %}
        {% if loop.first %}
        <div class="w-full mt-10">
          <a class="view-btn text-white uppercase" href="/dashboard?{{ queryparam }}&sf_id={{ member.sfcontact_id }}" target="_blank">View Dashboard</a>
        </div>
        {% endif %}
      {% endfor %}
    {% endif %}
