Solution

Try this:

Route::get('find', function()
{
    //display search page
});

Route::get('find/{name}', function($name)
{
    //display search results for {name}
});

or this:

Route::get('find/{name?}', function($name = null)
{
    //logic to display search form or search results
});

I use controllers Let me show you

Route::get('find/{name}', 'SearchController@search');

or can be also post

Route::post('find/{name}', 'SearchController@search');

and into controller i pass the route parameter name into the view composer

public function search($name)
{
	View::composer('search', function($view)
	{
		$viewdata= $view->getData();
		$name=$viewdata['name'];
                    //query here and $view->with to parse to the template
	});
	return View::make('search')->with('name',$name);
}
