browser back button is not updating page

I'm setting the URL after the hashmark with a jquery click event. The URL is getting set properly but when I use the browsers back button it doesn't ta开发者_如何学JAVAke me to the previous page.

Before my click event the URL looks like this:

http://example.com/menu.php?home

My click event looks like this:

$('#visits').click(function() { 
    $('#main').load("visits.php?type=1&view=1", function () { 
        location.href = "#visits";  
    });
    return false;
});

My URL now looks like this:

http://example.com/menu.php?home#visits

It seems as though menu.php doesn't get called with the browsers back button.

Any idea what I'm missing?

You could code something like this:

var _hash = '';

function myHashChangeCallback(hash) {
    // handle hash change
    // load some page using ajax, etc
}

function hashCheck() {
    var hash = window.location.hash;
    if (hash != _hash) {
        _hash = hash;
        myHashChangeCallback(hash);
    }
}

setInterval(hashCheck, 100);

Use the onhashchange event of the window, to check if the hash changes. This is getting called when you hit the back Button of your browser.

$(window).bind('hashchange',function() {
    if (location.hash != '#visits') {
        //Code to revert the changes on the page
    }
}

Older versions of IE don't support hashchange, so you have to cheat by using setInterval to poll a few times a second and check if it's changed.

if($.browser.msie && $.browser.version < 7){
    setInterval(function(){
        if(window.location.hash != window.lastHash){
            hashChangeHandler();
            window.lastHash = window.location.hash;
        }
    }, 100);
}
else{
    $(window).bind('hashchange',function() {
        if (location.hash != '#visits') {
            hashChangeHandler();
        }
    }
}
