In order to keep track of AJAX changes on a webpage, I will be constantly adding to or changing the hash fragment. Is it valid to append a hash to a URL without adding a question mark first?
Example:
Yes – it is perfectly valid for URLs to have a fragment identifier (denoted by a hash) without a querystring (denoted by a question mark).
As RFC-3986 shows, both the query and fragment parts are optional and unrelated in terms of their optionality.
