hx-vals

The hx-vals attribute allows you to add to the parameters that will be submitted with an AJAX request.

By default, the value of this attribute is a list of name-expression values in JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) format.

If you wish for hx-vals to evaluate the values given, you can prefix the values with javascript: or js:.

  <div hx-get="/example" hx-vals='{"myVal": "My Value"}'>Get Some HTML, Including A Value in the Request</div>

  <div hx-get="/example" hx-vals='js:{myVal: calculateValue()}'>Get Some HTML, Including a Dynamic Value from Javascript in the Request</div>

When using evaluated code you can access the event object. This example includes the value of the last typed key within the input.

  <div hx-get="/example" hx-trigger="keyup" hx-vals='js:{lastKey: event.key}'>
    <input type="text" />
  </div>
