back button in browser not working properly after using pushState (in Chrome)

问题

I am using this type of line in an JS response

if (history && history.pushState){
     history.pushState(null, null, '<%=j home_path %>');
}

but when I click back in the browser, I see the JS code of the response instead of the previous page.

Is there a way to make the back button work so it would re-request the page of the last url (before home_path as pushStated in?

Update:

I've found this.. it seems other have the same issue with.. History.js doesn't fix it either

So to confirm some of the comments there.. This happens only in chrome

What I think

I think the root of all this is that the popstate requests the same type of the pushstate document (js response). What needs to be done is on popstate request the html response.. I just don't know how

More updates:

seeing http://railscasts.com/episodes/246-ajax-history-state it mentions to use

 $(window).bind("popstate", function() {
      $.getScript(location.href);
    });

this solves the issue but according to understanding jQuery $.getScript() withtout ajax caching it will add timestamps.. which pollutes the url.. turning it off makes it not work again with the same effect..

Anyone knows how to solves this?

Even more Updates

I tracked the trails of the issue all over the interweb and ended with an issue in chrome which points to a rails issue (firefox works fine however) and an issue in rails-ujs concerning not including Vary Header in the responses

Example can be found here

回答1:

I am currently playing around with doing

 response.headers['Vary'] = 'Accept'

which seems to solve the problem, at first look.

If anyone has the same issue, please check it and let me know

You need to add a listener to the popstate event

window.onpopstate = function(event) {
    //load the page
};

When the back button is pressed the url is changed and then the popstate event is fired. It's your responsibility to load the details in your popstate listener that match the changed url.

A nice popstate example

Some browsers fire a popstate event when the page first loads, causing an infinite page loading loop. This can be avoided by adding the following check

var loadPage = window.history.state;
window.onpopstate = function(event) {
    if (loadPage) 
        //load the page
};

Then set the loadPage to true when pushState is called

history.pushState(null, null, '<%=j home_path %>');
loadPage = true;

This technique works in all browsers that support html5 history api.

It happened my with sinatra & chrome.

Solved it with:

$.ajaxSetup({ cache: false });

回答4:

I've tested this code on my browser using a local HTML file and I've gotten a console security error:

SecurityError: The operation is insecure.
  history.pushState(null, null, '<%=j home_path %>');

I can see how manipulating browser history may be considered a potentially dangerous behaviour, so I guess you should check that this is not happening for you as well. Try using the Firebug Javascript console. It is also possible that there might be differences in behaviour between local and http:// HTML files.

Said this, for what I've seen the last element of the history array is basically the current page, so if you want to change the previous one, you might do it by using two pushState() commands - first you push the previous element that you desire, then you push the current path again. If I understood your problem correctly.
