Fix @onclick:preventDefault not working with enhanced navigation#64917
Conversation
Fixes #52514 Enhanced navigation's native click handler was intercepting clicks before Blazor's EventDelegator could call event.preventDefault() via the @OnClick:preventDefault directive. This caused links with preventDefault to still navigate when enhanced navigation was enabled. The fix defers enhanced navigation's click handling to EventDelegator's notifyAfterClick callback, ensuring it runs after Blazor's event handlers have processed the click (including calling preventDefault if specified). Changes: - NavigationEnhancement.ts: Added attachEnhancedNavigationClickHandlerToEventDelegator() to register enhanced nav click handling via EventDelegator's afterClick callback - BrowserRenderer.ts: Wire up enhanced navigation to use EventDelegator - Added E2E test to verify the fix

Summary
Fixes #52514
@onclick:preventDefaultwas not functioning when enhanced navigation was enabled. Clicking a link with@onclick:preventDefaultwould still navigate away instead of preventing the default behavior.Root Cause
Enhanced navigation's native click handler (
document.addEventListener('click', onDocumentClick)) was intercepting clicks before Blazor's EventDelegator could callevent.preventDefault()via the@onclick:preventDefaultdirective.Solution
Defer enhanced navigation's click handling to EventDelegator's
notifyAfterClickcallback, ensuring it runs after Blazor's event handlers have processed the click (including callingpreventDefaultif specified). This follows the same pattern used byNavigationManager.ts.When an EventDelegator is available (interactive scenarios), click handling is deferred to the callback. In pure SSR scenarios without EventDelegator, the native click handler continues to work as before.
