hx-encoding

The hx-encoding attribute allows you to switch the request encoding from the usual application/x-www-form-urlencoded encoding to multipart/form-data, usually to support file uploads in an ajax request.

The value of this attribute should be multipart/form-data.

The hx-encoding tag may be placed on parent elements.

Notes

• hx-encoding is inherited and can be placed on a parent element
