@fseidler commented on GitHub (Aug 20, 2025):

I'm also having this issue, but for me it is on the Rack visualization (e.g. https://netbox/dcim/racks/2/)

It briefly seems to load the page, but after it a blank screen is shown.

@jeremystretch commented on GitHub (Aug 20, 2025):

I don't think this error is related to the rack elevation issue. It can be observed on other views as well (e.g. the site detail view), and seems to stem from HTMX requests used to embed additional content in the page. Some quick testing suggests the bug was introduced in v4.3.3.

Edit: See also #20043, which captures the styling "overflow" issue.

After upgrading to v4.3.7 from v.4.2.5 I noticed the same issue as @fseidler but not in my dev environment also running the v4.3.7. The difference was I had enabled the experimental HTMX navigation setting in my user preferences

Setting this back to disabled restored proper functionality, but it does not prevent the htmx:oobErrorNoTarget error in the browser dev console.

@arthanson commented on GitHub (Nov 7, 2025):

This is coming from netbox/templates/htmx/table.html specifically the hx-swap-oob calls there that are referencing things that don't exist on all pages. This is common table code for all tables, but on detail pages the tables don't have the oob control that these are referencing. It is ignorable and would either need to be suppressed by javascript or checking and changing all the includes for tables which is not feasible.

We have seen the same issue as @fseidler, that the page is blanked after loading completely, so this is definitive not only an cosmetic issue.

@einstux, I think you're probably experiencing #19932, which has been closed since we will be removing the experimental HTMX navigation feature in NetBox v4.5. If you need help working around the blank page issue, refer to the comment above.

@arthanson , was thinking about this and remembered that we might be able to use table.embedded here to know whether or not the table being rendered in templates/htmx/table.html is being embedded in a detail page or not. Going to put up a PR and ping you for review.
