Get the value of a specific variable in a html template with django

I am trying to get the value which is stored in a variable as :

html

<p class="title" name="no">Guarde : {{no}}</p>
...
<form action="nextep" method="get">
  <button class="btright" name="btnext" action="nextep">
      <i class="fas fa-chevron-circle-right"></i>
</form>

views.py

def nextep(request):
    n = {{ no }} #I would like to get it from the initial value stored (which is 1)
    return render(request, "episode.html", {'no': n+1})

How could I do that please? I tried different version with request.get['no'] too, but nothing worked, if someone has an idea, thanks for you help

You can create a tag to link to a particular view and pass the value of 'no' to the view. View:

def nextep(request, value):
    n = value
    return render(request, "episode.html", {'no': value+1})

HTML:

<a href={%url 'nextep' {{no}}%}>Next Step </a>
