Markup is not respected.

First and foremost, THANKS for this awesome library.

I am having trouble with Markup. Am I missing out on something?

import htpy as h
from markupsafe import Markup

script = Markup("""
    let editing = document.querySelector('.editing')
""")

btn = h.button(on_click=script)["edit"]

print('script: ', script)
print('btn: ', btn)

>>> script:  let editing = document.querySelector('.editing')
>>> btn:  <button on-click="let editing = document.querySelector(&#39;.editing&#39;)">edit</button>

This may be a bit confusing at first, but attributes are always escaped, regardless of whether or not it contains markup. This is a feature and this allows you to actually pass HTML fragments or script fragments.

Consider this htpy code:

button(onclick="let name = 'andreas'; alert('hi' + name);")["Say hi"]

The value of the attributes is escaped with ' to avoid breaking the quotes. The browser understands that and parses it as the proper quotes so it all works:

I realized that this behavior is not documented, will add a note to the docs about it!

Thanks for the quick reply. It addresses my concerns.

Reopening this issue until it's documented properly 🙂
