Javascript to handle manipulating url anchor for bookmarking
- by ajma
Hello, I'd like to use the anchor part of the url (after the #) so that my page can have ajax/dhtml but still be able to have bookmarks work properly. I'm wondering is someone can help me get started on writing some javascript code for this. I'm using jQuery, but if the solution's a generic one, that's fine too.
For my page, I could have settings like:
"a" could be a number from 10-50
"b" is a 0 or 1
"c" is a 0 or 1
etc...
I'd like some tips on writing optimized javascript code which could both parse and set something like #a=23&b=0&c=1
Also, I'd like to keep my url as short as possible, so if the default of "a" was 23, in the example above, the a=23 would be omitted.
Is there a library that does all this stuff already?
