Is there a trick to using navigate/patch alongside a phx-click event?  
If I use patch or navigate the phx-click handle\_event won’t trigger, but if I remove the route the event does trigger

```elixir
<.link navigate={~p"/example"} phx-click="example" phx-value-id={example.id}>

```

Is there something I’m missing? Or are they just not compatible?

Nevermind I’m an idiot  
I can just set the route in the handle\_event

Seems weird they don’t work together though
