How to disable a button with other HTML tags inside in a form in LiveView?

For example, if I have a button which has an SVG element inside then I can not really use phx-disable-with because it will just replace the inner HTML with the string for the attribute phx-disable-with. If I don’t use that attribute then my button won’t be disabled.

How can I make it so that my button will be disabled and the inner HTML will stay the same during phx-submit event handling?

You can use the phx-submit-loading:… modifier with tailwind (on phoenix 1.7).

Could you add JS commands to the button to achieve what you’re after?

The solution was in this post How to animate when the button is disabled on submit in LiveView? - #2 by ncusan

For futures me , this is what I built:

  attr(:label, :string, default: "Save")
  attr(:in_progress_label, :string, default: "Saving...")

  def save_modal_button(assigns) do
    ~H"""
    <button
      id="save-button"
      type="submit"
      phx-disable-with=""
      class="btn min-w-[7rem] rounded-full bg-primary font-medium text-white hover:bg-primary-focus focus:bg-primary-focus active:bg-primary-focus/90 dark:bg-accent dark:hover:bg-accent-focus dark:focus:bg-accent-focus dark:active:bg-accent/90"

      <span class="while-submitting"><%= @in_progress_label %></span>
    </button>
    """
  end

And in your app.css:

.while-submitting { display: none; }
.phx-submit-loading .while-submitting { display: block; }
.phx-submit-loading .inner-text { display: none; }
.inner-text { display: block; }
