Changing URLs with ajax

Post by GeXus »

Is it possible through using ajax to actually change the address that appears without having to refresh the browser?

I'm not sure what you exactly mean, but if I understand correctly, no.

It's using the url hash (anything after the # in the address), when manipulating that portion of the url, the page wont (afaik) reload.
