adding # to the url

[FrEaKmAn]

Hello

I might have a weird problem, but I'm seeking for a solution. I have a form with some inputs. I'm using ajax to call a search data and everything works, but problem is when users use back button because it loads the main search page (without results).

My idea was to store search data or parameters and then recall them when user access the page. As I have

site.com/browse

url, I need to know when user is returning and when it just accessed it. So I was thinking to use

site.com/browse#searching

and by clicking back button, I (site) would know that it's searching. Now how can I add #searching to the url? As I have a form, which also has to work without JS so form (action, mehod) and submit button have to be included. I only know how to add #searching to url with simple link (<a href="#....) but can I add this somehow else?

EDIT: stupid me, some extra googling and trying solved the problem, simple code as

window.location.href = "#searching";

does the job...

location.hash is a better option.
