However, accessing the button that triggered the event must be done carefully using `e.submitter` instead of relying on generic button selectors, and a reliable cleanup process (like a `finally` block) must be used to restore the button's state even if the async operation fails. +**Action:** When adding async loading states to form submissions in vanilla JavaScript, always use `e.submitter` conditionally, handle UI updates via explicit state manipulation, and rely on `try/finally` logic to ensure the button is re-enabled regardless of success or error outcomes. diff --git a/web-demo/css/style.css b/web-demo/css/style.css index e0d4506..c44697c 100644 --- a/web-demo/css/style.css +++ b/web-demo/css/style.css @@ -218,6 +218,12 @@ body { transition: all 0.3s ease; } +.btn:disabled { + opacity: 0.7; + cursor: not-allowed; + transform: none; +} + .btn-primary { background: linear-gradient(135deg, var(--primary) 0%, var(--primary-dark) 100%); color: white; diff --git a/web-demo/js/app.js b/web-demo/js/app.js index 11508de..9b3ed1f 100644 --- a/web-demo/js/app.js +++ b/web-demo/js/app.js @@ -144,6 +144,13 @@ class ClimaAI { e.preventDefault(); const email = document.getElementById('loginEmail').value; const password = document.getElementById('loginPassword').value; + const submitBtn = e.submitter; + const originalContent = submitBtn ? submitBtn.innerHTML : ''; + + if (submitBtn) { + submitBtn.disabled = true; + submitBtn.innerHTML = 'Logging in...'; + } try { this.showToast('Logging in...', 'info'); @@ -155,6 +162,11 @@ class ClimaAI { this.checkSubscription(); } catch (error) { this.showToast(error.message || 'Login failed', 'error'); + } finally { + if (submitBtn) { + submitBtn.disabled = false; + submitBtn.innerHTML = originalContent; + } } } @@ -163,6 +175,13 @@ class ClimaAI { const name = document.getElementById('registerName').value; const email = document.getElementById('registerEmail').value; const password = document.getElementById('registerPassword').value; + const submitBtn = e.submitter; + const originalContent = submitBtn ? submitBtn.innerHTML : ''; + + if (submitBtn) { + submitBtn.disabled = true; + submitBtn.innerHTML = 'Creating account...'; + } try { this.showToast('Creating account...', 'info'); @@ -174,6 +193,11 @@ class ClimaAI { this.checkSubscription(); } catch (error) { this.showToast(error.message || 'Registration failed', 'error'); + } finally { + if (submitBtn) { + submitBtn.disabled = false; + submitBtn.innerHTML = originalContent; + } } }
