<h1>WebSockets</h1>
<p>WebSockets create a fast, bi-directional connection between your server and a client's web browser.</p>
<p>As of version 1.7, WebSocket support has been moved into a new extension, and the existing <b>hx-ws</b> tag has been deprecated. All future development will occur in the extension code, and the deprecated tag will be removed in htmx version 2.0</p>
<h3>Required Attributes</h3>
<table>
<tr>
<td class="bold nowrap">hx-ext</td>
<td>Make sure the WS extension is initialized on every page or page fragment where you use WebSockets.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="bold nowrap">ws-connect</td>
<td>Connects to a WebSocket. All received messages parsed as OOB Swaps.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="bold nowrap">ws-send</td>
<td>Marks a form that, when submitted, will have its contents serialized and sent to the connected WebSocket server</td>
</tr>
</table>
<h3>Example Code</h3>
<pre class="code">
&lt;body&gt;
&lt;div hx-ext="ws" ws-connect="https://my.websocket.server.com"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/body&gt;
</pre>
