glamorous-honey-42686
05/04/2021, 7:07 PMtry using hx-swap="innerHTML" instead. Perhaps it's an issue when you are replacing a div with a main tag? - p

05/04/2021, 7:08 PMPerhaps double check what you get by using the browser inspector to see the network traffic? - p
plain-kangaroo-26043
05/04/2021, 7:08 PMthe response returns a full HTML document - p
plain-kangaroo-26043
05/04/2021, 7:09 PMit's not even getting that far: the page loads - I see the content flash- then the entire #content element disappears and there's an htmx:swap error - p
plain-kangaroo-26043
05/04/2021, 7:10 PMthe #content tag is removed from the DOM - g
glamorous-honey-42686
05/04/2021, 7:10 PMSo it doesn't even do a xhr request? - p
plain-kangaroo-26043
05/04/2021, 7:10 PMnope - p
plain-kangaroo-26043
05/04/2021, 7:10 PMjust breaks - g

05/04/2021, 7:11 PMIs this when you click a link or load the page to begin with? - p
plain-kangaroo-26043
05/04/2021, 7:11 PMload the page. - p
plain-kangaroo-26043
05/04/2021, 7:12 PMI'll probably need to set up htmx debug, as the error gives zero info - p
plain-kangaroo-26043
05/04/2021, 7:12 PMremove hx-select& hx-target it's fine - g
glamorous-honey-42686
05/04/2021, 7:13 PMDo you have any hx-get attributes or other stuff that triggers in the rest of the page? - p
plain-kangaroo-26043
05/04/2021, 7:13 PMhmm yes. I have some lazy loading hx-get attrs - p
plain-kangaroo-26043
05/04/2021, 7:14 PMI would think these should be ok, as they should only affect their own elements - g
glamorous-honey-42686
05/04/2021, 7:14 PMI think they inherit the hx-target and hx-select attributes - p
plain-kangaroo-26043
05/04/2021, 7:14 PMugh yes - p
plain-kangaroo-26043
05/04/2021, 7:15 PMso need to specify hx-target & hx-select everywhere
