Hi everyone? Any idea why/how would a button cause a browser reload? I have a simple button with an on-click function and for some strange reason it’s causing the page to reload when I click it. It does execute the function because I see the print in the console for a fleeting moment before the reload kicks in…

It’s driving me nuts.

is your button inside the form? it could be submitting the form if you’re not calling preventDefault on the event

hjrnunes16:07:16

yeah, just realised it is

hjrnunes16:07:26

it’s inside a reagent-forms template

hjrnunes16:07:00

that’s odd, never had to do that before

hjrnunes16:07:11

…because I wasn’t using the form element and now I am. Duh!

@hjrnunes: you can also set the button’s :type to ”button”, then clicking it will not submit the form at all
