htmx

Hey I'm using deno fresh + tailwind + htmx, and I'm running into an issue where boosted doesn't apply the styles on the page. Is there a way to fix this without changing my html?

hey thomas, I am working on a head-support extension for the next release of htmx: https://github.com/bigskysoftware/htmx/blob/9c746848814584d79f93253efc140f008b51b2a2/src/ext/head-support.js

what sort of semantics do you think it should have?

right now it "syncs" the head: 

* removes current head elements not in the new head
* adds head elements in the new head but not in the current head
* leaves elements present in both alone

I've started adding the ability to say things like "keep this in the head always" and "append these to the existing head", but I'm looking for real world use cases that validate the right behavior.

I'm starting to wonder if "append if it isn't in the existing head" isn't the right default

Elements present in both that are different should be swapped

<@725789255590215732> I just dropped it in in, it seems to work, however... lol.. when it hit the back button the page is missing the styles for the original component

I find my urls get pushed without ` hx-push-url="true"` but I can try that

Do you have the version of htmx from that branch?

There is some work I had to do to make history surface enough information and events

Yeah, you'll need to grab the htmx version from that branch:

im working in deno using `https://esm.sh/htmx.org@1.8.2` 🙃

https://github.com/bigskysoftware/htmx/blob/dev/src/htmx.js

I think I'll need another couple days to get this working right and think through all the different options unfortunately

boosting wasn't a big focus of the library at the start ("Everyone uses turbolinks for that.") but I'm slowly catching it up in that department

got side tracked by a nasty history-in-iOS-safari issue unfortunately, was hoping to have this extension out this week.

I create a HTMX plugin for fresh https://gist.github.com/reggi/24d52508b466fb80e9516e0e99329091 might need a #deno-htmx channel 🙂

It'll be part of the next htmx release, prob next week.

Do you have any thoughts on the head semantics?

Initially I was thinking "sync" as <@679354366473535516> suggests, where the head will be sync'd to the new head content.  But then, with partial replacement, I'm not sure that's ideal.  I've started to wonder if "append if absent" is a better default
