charlottegore / hashchange

Fire a callback when the hash changes

hashchange

Fires user defined callbacks when the hash for the page changes, including when 'back' and 'forward' on browser history are used. This also works for IE6 and IE7.

IE6/7 Fallback stuff based loosely on code from "jQuery BBQ" by Ben Alman.

Unlike jQuery BBQ, no jQuery is required and no parsing is done of the hashes just yet.

Installation

$ component install charlottegore/hashchange
