I'm writing a file manager application using Ajax techniques and the
client wants to be able to bookmark file searches. I send the search
request to a remote server using a XMLHttpRequest and then write the
search string to a # URL, either using window.location .href or
window.location .hash. This works fine with no problems in IE and Firefox
and works OK in Safari, except the browser goes into a permanent page
loading state as soon as I write the # URL.
Any ideas on how to cancel this state?

Can you provide a code snippet that shows the behaviour?

This shows the behaviour:
<head>
<title>Untitled </title>
<meta name="generator " content="BBEdit 8.2" />
<script type="text/javascript">
function foo() {
window.location .hash = 'test';
}

<body>
<a href="#" onClick="foo(); ">Click here</a>

That appears to do nothing in Safari 1.0.3, location.hash is changed,
but then the link is followed so that "http://...#" is shown in the
address bar. Maybe you should use:
<a href="#" onClick="foo(); return false;">Click here</a>
Which changes what is displayed in the # part of the URL in the
address bar.
The permanent page load doesn't happen for me at all, which version of
Safari are you using?

I'm on v 2.0.2.
According to this: http://www.s-seven.net/safari_bug.html#h_value6 your
version won't show the problem. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |
