## Click To Load

This example shows how to implement click-to-load the next page in a table of data.  The crux of the demo is
the final row:

```html
<tr id="replaceMe">
  <td colspan="3">
    <button class='btn' hx-get="/contacts/?page=2" 
                        hx-target="#replaceMe" 
                        hx-swap="outerHTML">
         Load More Agents... <img class="htmx-indicator" src="/img/bars.svg">
    </button>
  </td>
</tr> 
```

This row contains a button that will replace the entire row with the next page of
results (which will contain a button to load the *next* page of results).  And so on.
