/File Upload Example

To use HTMX with FastHTML you can pass the attributes to the HTML elements (e.g. `Button("Show", hx_get=my_route, hx_target='#my-target')`).  Key things to keep in mind:

In FastHTML routes stringify to the route path so you can be pythonic instead of passing strings.  For example if we have the following routes:

```python
@rt
def my_route(): return "Hello world"

@rt
def my_second_route(my_arg:str): return my_arg
```

In this example `Button("Show", hx_get=my_route)` would translate to `Button("Show", hx_get='/my_route')`.  

For routes that have query or path parameters we can use the `to` method if it's not passed via a form.  For example, `Button("Show", hx_get=my_second_route.to(my_arg="Goodbye"))` would translate to `Button("Show", hx_get='/my_second_route?my_arg=Goodbye')`.

`@rt` by default exposes routes as both a `GET` and a `POST`, which is almost always what I want.

## File Upload Example

```python
from base64 import b64encode
from fasthtml.common import *
from monsterui.all import *

app, rt = fast_app(hdrs=Theme.blue.headers())

@rt
def index():
    inp = Card(
        H3("Drag and drop images here"),
        # HTMX for uploading multiple images
        Input(type="file",name="images", multiple=True, required=True, 
              # Call the upload route on change
              post=upload, hx_target="#image-list", hx_swap="afterbegin", hx_trigger="change",
              # encoding for multipart
              hx_encoding="multipart/form-data",accept="image/*"))

    return DivCentered(inp, H3("👇 Uploaded images 👇"), Div(id="image-list"))

async def ImageCard(image):
    contents = await image.read()
    # Create a base64 string
    img_data = f"data:{image.content_type};base64,{b64encode(contents).decode()}"
    # Create a card with the image
    return Card(H4(image.filename), Img(src=img_data, alt=image.filename))

@rt
async def upload(images: list[UploadFile]):
    # Create a grid filled with 1 image card per image
    return Grid(*[await ImageCard(image) for image in images])

serve()
```

## Cascading DropDown Example

```python
from fasthtml.common import *
from monsterui.all import *
from fasthtml import ft

app, rt = fast_app(hdrs=Theme.blue.headers())

chapters = ['ch1', 'ch2', 'ch3']
lessons = {
    'ch1': ['lesson1', 'lesson2', 'lesson3'],
    'ch2': ['lesson4', 'lesson5', 'lesson6'],
    'ch3': ['lesson7', 'lesson8', 'lesson9']}

def mk_opts(nm, cs):
    return (
        ft.Option(f'-- select {nm} --', disabled='', selected='', value=''),
        *map(ft.Option, cs))

@rt
def get_lessons(chapter: str):
    return ft.Select(*mk_opts('lesson', lessons[chapter]), name='lesson')

@rt
def index():
    chapter_dropdown = ft.Select(
        *mk_opts('chapter', chapters),
        name='chapter',
        hx_get=get_lessons, hx_target='#lessons',
        label='Chapter:')

    return Container(
        DivLAligned(FormLabel("Chapter:", for_="chapter"),chapter_dropdown),
        DivLAligned(
            FormLabel("Lesson:", for_="lesson"),
            Div(id='lessons')),  
        cls='space-y-4')

serve()
```

## Infinite Scroll Example

```python
from fasthtml.common import *
from monsterui.all import *
import uuid

column_names = ('name', 'email', 'id')

def generate_contact(id: int) -> Dict[str, str]:
    return {'name': 'Agent Smith',
            'email': f'void{str(id)}@matrix.com',
            'id': str(uuid.uuid4())
            }

def generate_table_row(row_num: int) -> Tr:
    contact = generate_contact(row_num)
    return Tr(*[Td(contact[key]) for key in column_names])

def generate_table_part(part_num: int = 1, size: int = 20) -> Tuple[Tr]:
    paginated = [generate_table_row((part_num - 1) * size + i) for i in range(size)]
    paginated[-1].attrs.update({
        'get': f'page?idx={part_num + 1}',
        'hx-trigger': 'revealed',
        'hx-swap': 'afterend'})
    return tuple(paginated)

app, rt = fast_app(hdrs=Theme.blue.headers())

@rt
def index():
    return Titled('Infinite Scroll',
                  Div(Table(
                      Thead(Tr(*[Th(key) for key in column_names])),
                      Tbody(generate_table_part(1)))))

@rt
def page(idx:int|None = 0):
    return generate_table_part(idx)
```

## Simple Todo App Example
