How to disable htmx include the closest form for non-GET request?

[zw963]

by default, htmx does not include the closest enclosing form for GET requests, but it does include the form for all other types of requests.
   The `hx-include' attribute allows you to select input values that you wish to include in a request via CSS selectors.

I want to avoid it for only summit one of input in the form use hx-put instead, so, can we disable this behavior?

Thanks.

Hey, seems there's no way to prevent this behavior, which is currently implemented as follows:

htmx/src/htmx.js

Lines 2609 to 2612 in 4bc7c97

	// for a non-GET include the closest form
	if (verb !== 'get') {
	processInputValue(processed, formValues, errors, closest(elt, 'form'), validate);
	}

As a workaround you may move your button out of your form if it's not meant to target the same action/method anyway

If I understand it correctly, you have a form, and multiple checkboxes to indicate "on" or "off" status for something, and the form doesn't have any other inputs?

Sorry for confusing, except checkboxs, there are many others inputs there, please check following screenshot.

In this case, if i click on checkbox, i don't want the backend server update others input too.

Thanks

I'm not sure I understand the situation here; why make the checkboxes save their state in the DB on click but not the other inputs?
Isn't that a convoluted and confusing UX? If checkboxes are inside a form along other inputs, I feel like as a user I would expect to have either all of them be saved automatically, or all of them be saved only when I click the submit button, but not some doing the first and some others doing the latter

Okay, i am fine with current solution. (save all fields in the form when user only click checkbox)

my init thought just want following (2) can be omit in following user's frequently process:

1. click on checkbox
2. click submit (omit this)
3. click back to the list page.

This default behavior is good, but if it is configurable, it is perfect!
