HTML Data Attributes implementation guide in React Component After State Change
I'm dealing with I'm wondering if anyone has experience with I'm working on a personal project and I am working with an scenario where data attributes on my HTML elements are not updating correctly after a state change in my React component... I have a button that, when clicked, should toggle a state variable, which in turn is supposed to change the `data-active` attribute of a div. Here's a simplified version of my code: ```jsx import React, { useState } from 'react'; const ToggleComponent = () => { const [isActive, setIsActive] = useState(false); const handleClick = () => { setIsActive(prevState => !prevState); }; return ( <div data-active={isActive}> <button onClick={handleClick}>Toggle</button> </div> ); }; export default ToggleComponent; ``` When I click the button, I expect the `data-active` attribute to toggle between `true` and `false`. However, when I inspect the element in the browser, the attribute remains unchanged after the first click. I checked the console, and there are no behavior messages at all. I am using React 17.0.2 and Chrome 92.0.4515.107. I also tried using a `useEffect` to log the state variable to see if it updates as expected, and it does, but the DOM does not reflect this change. Hereβs what I have in my console log: ```jsx useEffect(() => { console.log('isActive:', isActive); }, [isActive]); ``` The logs show that `isActive` toggles correctly, but the attribute on the div does not seem to reflect this change. I have tried force-updating with a `ref`, but that didn't help either. Is there something I'm missing in how React handles attributes, or is there a better way to bind a data attribute that I should be following? Any insights would be appreciated! For context: I'm using Javascript on Ubuntu. How would you solve this? I'd really appreciate any guidance on this. The project is a application built with Javascript.
