Delete Row#

Original HTMX Version

Demo#

Explanation#

This example shows how to implement a delete button that removes a table row upon completion. First let’s look at the table body:

<table class="table">
  <thead>
    <tr>
      <th>Name</th>
      <th>Email</th>
      <th>Status</th>
      <th></th>
    </tr>
  </thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr id="contact_0">
      <td>Joe Smith</td>
      <td>joe@smith.org</td>
      <td>Active</td>
      <td>
        <button
          data-on-click="confirm('Are you sure?') && sse('/examples/delete_row/data/0', {method: 'delete'})"
        >
          Delete
        </button>
      </td>
    </tr>
    ...
  </tbody>
</table>

The row has a normal confirm to confirm the delete action. We also use the following CSS to fade out.

tr.datastar-swapping td {
  opacity: 0;
  transition: opacity 1s ease-out;
}

To fade the row out before it is swapped/removed.
