How to access data from res.render in Express

Question

I want to access the data that was sent from response.render in my html file.

I have this code in my server.

 app.post('/game',function(req,res){
 var name = "Jude";
 res.render(__dirname +'/game.html',{user:name});
 });

How do i access user variable in my game.html?

You'd have to use a template language like Jade , EJS and so on . If you already have the HTML in place, try EJS.
