Deployment Type

NetBox Cloud

NetBox Version

v4.1.0

Python Version

3.10

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Ensure HTMX navigation is enabled
  2. Select a Device with multiple Interfaces
  3. Select the Interfaces tab
  4. Don't select any interfaces, but click "Edit Selected"

Expected Behavior

Page should remain on the Interfaces object list, and a toast should appear saying "No interfaces were selected" as occurs under non-HTMX navigation.

Observed Behavior

The page is replaced with a blank pane, and no toast appears.

This is because BulkEditView is encountering an error and issuing a redirect to the get_return_url, but because it's happening in an HTMX container the browser doesn't render it properly at the top level.

Error conditions like this need to be handled in a different way under HTMX.

Closing this out as the experimental HTMX navigation feature is being removed in NetBox v4.5.
