htmx 0.4.0 Release

I'm pleased to announce the 0.4 release of htmx.

Changes

New Features

• Now support the HX-Redirect and HX-Refresh response headers for redirecting client side and triggering a page refresh, respectively
• hx-vars now overrides input values
• <title> tags in responses will be used to update page titles
• All uses of eval() have been removed in favor of Function
• hx-vals is available as a save alternative to hx-vars. It uses JSON.parse() rather than evaluation, if you wish to safely pass user-provided values through to htmx.

Bug Fixes

• Eliminated perf issues around hx-boost in large pages that are not using that attribute
• Fixed bug which prevented evaluation when a script tag was the leading content in a response

Enjoy!
