title = "hx-disabled-elt"

The `hx-disabled-elt` attribute allows you to specify elements that will have the `disabled` attribute
added to them for the duration of the request. The value of this attribute can be:
* A CSS query selector of the element to disable.
* `this` to disable the element itself
* `closest <CSS selector>` which will find the [closest](https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/API/Element/closest)
ancestor element or itself, that matches the given CSS selector
(e.g. `closest fieldset` will disable the closest to the element `fieldset`).
* `find <CSS selector>` which will find the first child descendant element that matches the given CSS selector
* `next` which resolves to [element.nextElementSibling](https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/API/Element/nextElementSibling)
* `next <CSS selector>` which will scan the DOM forward for the first element that matches the given CSS selector
(e.g. `next button` will disable the closest following sibling `button` element)
* `previous` which resolves to [element.previousElementSibling](https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/API/Element/previousElementSibling)
* `previous <CSS selector>` which will scan the DOM backwards for the first element that matches the given CSS selector.
(e.g `previous input` will disable the closest previous sibling `input` element)
Here is an example with a button that will disable itself during a request:
```html
<button hx-post="/example" hx-disabled-elt="this">
Post It!
</button>
```
When a request is in flight, this will cause the button to be marked with [the `disabled` attribute](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Attributes/disabled),
which will prevent further clicks from occurring.
The `hx-disabled-elt` attribute also supports specifying multiple CSS selectors separated by commas to disable multiple elements during the request. Here is an example that disables buttons and text input fields of a particular form during the request:
```html
<form hx-post="/example" hx-disabled-elt="find input[type='text'], find button">
<input type="text" placeholder="Type here...">
<button type="submit">Send</button>
</form>
```
## Notes
* `hx-disabled-elt` is inherited and can be placed on a parent element
