AngularJS is putting forward slash / after hash tag
anchor-scroll, angularjs, hashtag
Solution
Unless you use html5mode, which removes the hash from angular routing, you will have 2 hashes, one for angular routing and other for anchors.
`http://localhost:13060/Dashboard#/#contact`
Assuming you had a route path set as `/profiles` and anchor was in that view the url would look like:
`http://localhost:13060/Dashboard#/profiles#contact`
Problem
I'm trying to use AngularJS `$anchorScroll` with `$location.hash`. However, when I set the hash, AngularJS adds a forward slash, / after it. For example, the url is: `http://localhost:13060/Dashboard`. When I don't include the AngularJS library, I can click the link, `#contact`, and go to `http://localhost:13060/Dashboard#contact`. But when I include AngularJS and click the link, it goes to `http://localhost:13060/Dashboard#/contact` preventing $anchorScroll from working. Edit $anchorScroll not working The starting URL is `http://localhost:13060/Category`. When I add a category, it should go to `http://localhost:13060/Category#/#id` (where id is the new id) and scroll down the page to it. The URL is correctly updating but $anchorScroll is not scrolling. ``` //jump to new category $location.path(""); $location.hash(cat.ID); $anchorScroll(); ```
