jQuery Mobile and URLs
If you've opened test2.html
in your browser and played with it, you may have noticed something interesting about the URLs as you navigate. The following is the initial http://localhost/mobile/c2/test2.html
URL (the address and folder will, of course, differ on your computer).
After clicking on Products, the URL will change to http://localhost/mobile/c2/products.html
. If I click on back and click on learn more, I will get http://localhost/mobile/c2/test2.html#aboutPage
.
In both the subpages (the Products page and the About page), the URL was changed by the framework itself. The framework uses history.pushState
and history.replaceState
in the browsers that support it. For older browsers, or browsers that don't support JavaScript manipulation of the URL, hash-based navigation is used instead. The http://localhost/mobile/c2/test2.html#/mobile/c2/products.html
