删除哈希后，hashchange事件会触发吗？

Question

I used both jquery hashchange and window.addEventListener("hashchange") but the event not firing when hash part is removed by code. I'm using mithril.js to change hash:

m.route('')

window.addEventListener("hashchange", function(evt) {
    console.log("hash change");
    var path = location.hash.substring(1);
    console.log(path);
    //do other things
}, false);

Does the event fire when hash part of the url removed? If not what is the workaround to handle this case?

Answer 1

It doesn't fire if history.pushState() is used to remove the hash.

According to mithril.js docs :

In addition, note that most m.route modes rely on history.pushState in order to allow moving from one page to another without a browser refresh.
