There was a problem hiding this comment.
I think this is minor, raising out of interest. Nesting a button inside a link is not valid HTML:
Content model:
Transparent, but there must be no interactive content descendant, a element descendant, or descendant with the tabindex attribute specified.
There might be weird behaviour as a result.
An alternative solution might be to retain the outer <div> and only hide the <a> if JS loads. I haven't tested this.
<div>
{
jsLoaded ?
(<Button></Button>)
:
(<LinkButton></LinkButton>)
}
</div>

This change adds support for a fallback
Morebutton on the football matches pages for when JavaScript is disabled in the browser.Why introduce nextPageNoJsUrl:
There is a convention in frontend routing where for any page route (e.g. /football/fixtures/more/:year/:month/:day), there is also a corresponding .json route (e.g. /football/fixtures/more/:year/:month/:day.json). These .json routes return the full data required to render a page, including config and navigation.
In DCAR the
Morebutton is using the .json route to fetch more matches. However, this returns far more data than necessary — config, nav, and other unrelated information — when all that is needed is a list of matches to append to the current view.Upon further investigation, we noticed that the HTML version of the
/more/routes serves the same content as the equivalent non-/more/ routes. Based on this, we decided to remove the HTML versions of the /more/ routes to simplify routing. The PR for this: guardian/frontend#27939However, we later realised that the DCAR implementation did not support a non-JavaScript experience for the More button. To fix this, we needed a way to render the More button as a fallback link (i.e. an anchor tag) that simply navigates to the next page of matches when JavaScript is disabled.
Since the
/more/routes are being deprecated, we now use the equivalent non-/more/ route to construct that fallback link — this is provided via the newnextPageNoJsUrlprop.TOTO:
This PR can be merged after guardian/frontend#27946
