window.location

I learned "window.location.hash" new and tried in my jquery code instead of "window.location.href" and both of them gave same results. Code is here : window.location.href = ($(e.currentTarget).attr("href")); window.location.hash = ($(e.currentTarget).attr("href")); What is the difference between them? Selvakumar Arumugam For an URL like http://[www.example.com]:80/search?q=devmo#test hash return the part of the URL that follows the # symbol, including the # symbol. You can listen for the hashchange event to get notified of changes to the hash in supporting browsers. Returns: #test href returns

Is there a better way to convert a URL's location.search as an object? Maybe just more efficient or trimmed down? I'm using jQuery, but pure JS can work too. var query = window.location.search.substring(1), queryPairs = query.split('&'), queryJSON = {}; $.each(queryPairs, function() { queryJSON[this.split('=')[0]] = this.split('=')[1]; }); Here's a pure JS function. Parses the search part of the current URL and returns an object. (It's a bit verbose for readability, mind.) function searchToObject() { var pairs = window.location.search.substring(1).split("&"), obj = {}, pair, i; for ( i in

What's the difference between $locationChangeSuccess and $locationChangeStart ? They are both undocumented events related to window.location . The $locationChangeStart is fired when AngularJS starts to update browser's location based on mutations done via $location service ( $location.path() , $location.search() ). It might happen that an application will listen to the $locationChangeStart event and will call preventDefault() on it. In this case the second event ( $locationChangeSuccess ) won't be broadcasting. In short: $locationChangeStart fires when the location gets updated. It is followed

I have been trying to figure this out all afternoon, but have given up and now turning to you clever people to help :) I have the following Jquery/Javascript function, which is working fine in Chrome - BUT in IE nothing happens? $(".btnsubmitpost").click(function () { var topicid = $(this).attr('rel'); var sbody = tinyMCE.get('txtPost').getContent(); $('.topicpostlistnewpost').remove(); $('.postsuccess').show(); $.post("/myurl/" + topicid + ".aspx", { "postcontent": sbody }, function (data) { var returnUrl = $("value", data).text(); window.location.href = returnUrl; return false; }); return

how do I check if a call to window.location failed because the given URL was invalid, etc? Is there some event I can set on the window object or on some other object that can catch this? Finally got it to work using a "workaround" that is not a generic solution as I originally hoped: I am using the fact that the link I am trying to open is a custom url scheme (e.g. myxx://localhost) on mobile, and if it fails, the action I want to perform is a redirection to a standard appstore URL (os-specific). The workaround tries to open the custom URL, and if it fails, the timeout function kicks in

Possible Duplicate: Is it possible to register a http+domain-based URL Scheme for iPhone apps, like YouTube and Maps? I have a custom URL scheme for my iOS app, and I want to be able to email a link to someone that will either launch the app if it's on the device, or take them to the app store if they don't have it. I'd like to be able to send myapp://someurl and have that either launch or go to myapp on the appstore, but I don't think this will work out of the box. Instead, I'm thinking of creating a link that loads some javascript which will try myapp://someurl, and if that fails will
