How do I, with javascript, change the URL in the browser without loading the new page?
- by Steven Noble
How would I have a javascript action that may have some effects on the current page but would also change the URL in the browser so if the user hits reload or bookmark the new url is used? It would also be nice if the back button would reload the original URL.
EDIT:
as moonshadow correctly assumes I am trying to record javascript state in the URL
