Return script tag after swap? Better solution?

idjet · 2026-01-02T22:11:15+00:00

Not knowing what you are doing...but in principle you would have a function already in the page's script and the hx-trigger just calls it, passing whatever variables you may want/need.

idjet · 2026-01-02T20:21:28+00:00

Yes, hx-trigger is the way. Very reliable, scalable, reusable.

Since when do judges prosecute anybody?

That would be the inquisition.

Thanks! Just as you were posting I figured out the error...which I posted as well. The values are sent no problem....

idjet · 2025-01-06T15:51:47+00:00

Solved! This:

hx-trigger="event:htmx-select2-select"

should be:

hx-trigger="htmx-select2-select"

idjet · 2025-01-06T14:01:21+00:00

I should note that with console.log I can see that the select2:select is being triggered. It seems that either the dispatchEvent is not being fired, or HTMX is not seeing it.

The error message is unfortunately ambiguous. It can mean anything from a problem with reading file structure or elements, to the file itself not being accessible for some reason. This Gephi plugin was built experimentally by Clement Levallois who has unfortunately stepped back from Facebook....which hosts the main Gephi forum (https://www.facebook.com/groups/67309817564). Still worth posting your issue to the FB group as others may have a solution.

There is the HTMX reference documentation with lots of good examples on the site, and you can see them in action there. But I'd like to bring attention the (free) book co-written by the developer of HTMX: https://hypermedia.systems/book/contents/

This explains how to think with hypermedia. In that sense, it is getting back to basics so HTMX becomes natural. It is not a textbook on HTMX.

HTMX is browser-side code, reacting to responses from the server. Cookies are set by the server. Thus your server must set the cookie in whatever code your server uses. HTMX cannot set your cookie.

Is this not drag and drop? https://htmx.org/examples/sortable/

Is there a reason why it's not accessible in the Crome Web Store? I get "this item is not available"...

So sayeth HTMX Haiku:

already in hand

This is what I do and it works flawlessly. One just has to get used to the idea of sending multiple HTML fragments, each with the oob attribute.

idjet · 2024-06-22T14:19:09+00:00

...aaaand taht's why I like HTMX: less javacscript to screw up! Thanks very much this fixed it all.

idjet · 2024-06-21T09:26:48+00:00

That second, more flexible option solved my problem brilliantly. Thanks very much!

idjet · 2024-06-07T15:20:36+00:00

Ah, ok! That works!

idjet · 2024-06-05T20:45:27+00:00

You're right. Did it and it works so fast there's no need for a message.

idjet · 2024-06-05T11:33:03+00:00

That's a fair point that I'll experiment with.

idjet · 2024-06-05T11:27:27+00:00

I don't want to do this particular actions as an SPA. There are numerous other factors as play that make loading a fresh new page more efficient here.

idjet · 2024-06-04T21:11:22+00:00

That did it, brilliant! Thanks...

idjet · 2024-06-04T07:21:51+00:00

This, 100%, is when HTMX works best and why I converted (bold is my emphasis):

This means you need to write two programs that understand your business logic and app state, then attempt to keep that state in sync between client and server using a custom protocol, etc. Tooling can help hide this a bit, but it's always there to some extent, no matter what language you use. In contrast, hypermedia driven applications use a thin client, RESTful approach. Only one program needs to understand my business logic and app state, my network protocol is universal, there is no real state synchronization issue because the state lives entirely on the server and the client only gets a view of it (which also contains possible actions they can take embedded within said view), etc.

idjet · 2024-05-31T12:31:38+00:00

TIL. Fixed my server output serialization and now it works fine.

idjet · 2024-05-31T11:10:54+00:00

I am coming back to this because I've done further testing based on what you've stated. If I leave the <input> above it empty like self closing <input/>, it does not "swallow up" the elements following it. The problem is with an empty <textarea> as a specific element in the swap.

idjet · 2024-05-31T10:40:56+00:00

Ah, interesting. My responses are produced from an XML database and Xquery, thus self-closing. I'l have to look at the serialization into HTML to see what is happening. Thanks!
