Besides all the obvious syntax errors, the problem should be resolved by placing the arguments that you pass to the route within the url_for block.

@app.route('/')
def index():
    # ...
    return redirect(url_for('nextPage', id=DBTable.id))

@app.route('/<id>')
def nextPage(id):
    # ...
    return render_template('page2.html')
