I am trying to use the History API to allow me to use the back and forward buttons when loading content dynamically. Here is the code I am using, and an example of the state object I am using too.
How I am using the state object and pushstate()
var stateObj = {Content : homeSection.innerHTML, "Product" : detail.Name, Title : title.innerHTML, Section:"dynamicArticle"};
window.history.pushState(stateObj, "", detailName);
window.addEventListener('popstate', function(event) {
updateContent(event.state);
});
Function used:
function updateContent(stateObject) {
if (stateObject){
homeSection = document.getElementById(stateObject.Section);
homeSection.innerHTML = stateObject.Content;
title.innerHTML = stateObject.Title;
var items = document.querySelectorAll(".homeItem");
if(items){
for(i=0; i<items.length; i++){
items[i].addEventListener("click", selectedProduct);
}
}
checkoutButton = document.getElementById('checkoutButton');
if(checkoutButton){
checkoutButton.addEventListener('click', function(){
displayCheckout();
});
}
basketButton = document.getElementById("basketButton");
quantityInput = document.getElementById("productQuantity");
if(basketButton){
basketButton.addEventListener('click', clicked);
basketButton.addEventListener('click', updateBasketNumber);
quantityInput.value = "1";
}
searchSort = document.getElementById("sort");
if(searchSort){
var items = document.querySelectorAll(".searchResult");
for(i=0; i<items.length; i++){
items[i].addEventListener("click", selectedProduct);
}
searchSort.addEventListener("change", function(){
sort = searchSort.value;
searchItem(e, sort);
});
}
}
else{
return;
}
}
What I am struggling with is that if I navigate to one of the pages using the pushState()
and I try to reload the page, as you would expect the page cannot be found.
I am asking if there is a way to allow a reload or for someone to navigate to the URL without it giving an error, and giving the correct content
Just like @jon-koops pointed in the comment you need to configure your server to redirect requests to the same page where all you links branch.
If you are using apache 2.2.16+
it get's as simple as:
FallbackResource /index.html
This will rewrite all URL's to a single entry point that is index.html
page.
Other solutions depend on the server you are running.
