Question

I want it so that if someone visits:

http://www.site.com/#hash

It puts the data after the hash into the input box with the id url

and then it submits the form.

Here is my code:

<form method="post">
    <input id="url" placeholder="Enter" name="url">
    <input type="submit" id="visit" value="Visit" class="submit">
</form>

How can I do this?

Answer 1

you can use

    if( window.location.hash) {
         var hashVal = window.location.hash.substring(1);
          $("#url").val(hashVal );
      } else {
          alert("no hash found");
      }
