<input onClick="string()"/> throws TypeError

[Eduardo P. Gomez]

Observed Behaviour
the onClick property MUST be a MouseEventHandler or undefined. Because of this behaviour, I'm unable to call my client-side functions defined in a external script.

<input type="submit" onClick="doSomething()"/> - Type 'string' is not assignable to type 'MouseEventHandler<T> | undefined'.ts(2322)

The syntax works if you insert a //@ts-ignore.

Expected Current Behaviour

Inferno should have string-compatible types.

Hi, thanks for reporting this issue. I will look into it.

What about referring to the method through global object? You could also extend the window type definition with external methods to have type system working.

<input type="submit" onClick={window.doSomething} />

I'll check it out when I get home. I'm working right now Em seg., 27 de nov. de 2023 12:44, Sampo Kivistö ***@***.***> escreveu:

Sorry for the late reply. As I'm not in a client-side context, the "window" word is not set. It says that window is not defined

[Sampo Kivistö]

ah, so you want to do this in server side rendering?

[Eduardo P. Gomez]

Yup, exactly. My client side code is minified on my own way, and I don't need inferno in the client side (yet).
