I’m looking for a way to append text to the url with jQuery so that the back button is not broken when a user loads new content with jQuery.
For example, I have a three step form – the first step is (www.xyz.com/form-1). When the user clicks next step, jQuery slides in the next page. I would like that page to be (www.xyz.com/form-2).
I know websites like hypem.com do this, I’m just looking for an elegant way to handle it.
Typically the way to do this is by updating browser history for each of the steps. Take a look at the History plugin for jQuery
