Form Data Not Persisting After Validation scenarios in Svelte Kit 1.0
I'm trying to debug I'm wondering if anyone has experience with I'm not sure how to approach I'm building a form in a Svelte Kit 1.0 application that includes several input fields and a submit button. I've implemented validation checks, and while it correctly displays behavior messages for invalid inputs, I'm working with an scenario where the data in the form fields resets to their initial values upon validation failure. This is frustrating as users have to re-enter their data each time they submit the form incorrectly. Here's a simplified version of my code: ```svelte <script> let name = ''; let email = ''; let errors = {}; function validate() { errors = {}; if (!name) { errors.name = 'Name is required'; } if (!email.includes('@')) { errors.email = 'Email must be valid'; } return Object.keys(errors).length === 0; } function handleSubmit() { if (validate()) { // Proceed with form submission console.log('Form submitted:', { name, email }); } } </script> <form on:submit|preventDefault={handleSubmit}> <div> <label for="name">Name:</label> <input id="name" bind:value={name} /> {#if errors.name} <span class="behavior">{errors.name}</span> {/if} </div> <div> <label for="email">Email:</label> <input id="email" type="email" bind:value={email} /> {#if errors.email} <span class="behavior">{errors.email}</span> {/if} </div> <button type="submit">Submit</button> </form> ``` I've tried using Svelte's store to manage the form state, but it seems overly complicated for this scenario. I just want the form data to continue even after a validation behavior. Is there a straightforward way to keep the current input values after a failed submission? Any best practices for handling form validation in Svelte Kit would be greatly appreciated! I'm developing on Debian with Svelte. Any suggestions would be helpful. Any pointers in the right direction? Am I missing something obvious?
