htmx

Not familiar with `hx-preserve`, I'll look into it

yeah, I guess now that I think of it the ideas I was thinking of (returning partial results of search queries) were targeting a div outside of the input

"Note that some elements cannot unfortunately be preserved properly, such as <input type="text"> (focus and caret position are lost), iframes or certain types of videos. "

I mean, I know I'm asking for the world so maybe I just need to refactor a little

make sure it works before you go down this road

Yeah, I guess since the coupon is really nestled into the shopping cart, it would be difficult to return a response that wraps around it:

what if you target an error message after the input

and then, if the coupon is valid, trigger an event that refreshes the whole cart?

I like that. It would also save a lot of backend resources spent re-rendering the prices and everything

<@725789255590215732> instead of targeting/returning an error message after the input, if I just return a 204 (and still target the entire cart) would HTMX try to replace the cart with nothing, or would it not do a swap?

That seems nice, then. Return 204 if the promo code is wrong, otherwise send the new cart render

the behavior I staked my reputation on is useful to someone

successful operation but no content returned

418 (specifically "teapot") is a Hitchhiker's Guide reference, is it not?
