htmx 1.9.3 Release

I'm happy to announce the 1.9.3 release of htmx.

New Features

• The hx-on attribute has been deprecated (sorry) in favor of hx-on:<event name> attributes. See hx-on for more information.
• You can now configure if a type of HTTP request uses the body for parameters or not. In particular, the DELETE should use query parameters, according to the spec. htmx has used the body, instead. To avoid breaking code we are keeping this undefined behavior for now, but allowing people to fix it for their use cases by updating the htmx.config.methodsThatUseUrlParams config option. Thank you to Alex and Vincent for their feedback and work on this issue!
• The this symbol is now available in event filter expressions, and refers to the element the hx-trigger is on
• The HX-Reselect HTTP response header has been added to change the selection from the returned content

Improvements & Bug fixes

• We now have functioning CI using GitHub actions!
• Fix bug where the htmx:afterSettle event was raised multiple times with oob swaps occurred
• A large number of accessibility fixes were made in the docs (Thank you Denis & crew!)
• Fixed bug w/ WebSocket extension initialization caused by "naked" hx-trigger feature
• Many other smaller bug fixes

Thank you to everyone who contributed, and enjoy!
