Remove hashtag(#) from url

hashtag, html, javascript, jquery, url

Solution

You could try that:

$(window).on('hashchange', function(e){
    history.replaceState ("", document.title, e.originalEvent.oldURL);
});

Problem

I want hash-tags to be removed from URL after they are used. For example, when i click on the link below: ``` <a href="#btnq1"><button type="button" name="" value="" id="btnq1">Just a button</button></a> ``` I want the hash-tag #btnq1 that appears to the URL of the page to be removed just after the action on this link happens. I tried the below jquery code with no success: ``` $('#btnq1').click(function(event){ event.preventDefault(); // your action }); ``` And even if this works, then how do i implement it to work for every hash tag that is added to the URL? I would like to solve it using javascript.
