historymanager's Issues

onChange parameter

When setting a new value to a list, only the first index is sent to the #-changed event handler:

var HM = new HistoryManager();
HM.addEvent('xxx-changed', function(val) {console.log(val)});
HM.start();

HM.set('xxx', [1]); // logs 1
HM.set('xxx', [1,2]); // logs 1

typo in hashlistener code

In line 120 (http://github.com/arieh/HistoryManager/blob/master/Source/HashListener.js#L120) there is a typo. It should be 'gecko' not 'geko', I think.

updateState not called

Hi,

First of all, nice component!

I've noticed one unexpected behaviour. If you set multiple values in HM in say a click handler only the last one is set.
I think this is because in HM.set, this.state is not yet updated between the two calls. It is not updated because in HL.setHash, 'onhashchange' is in window and document.documentNode is undefined (FF 8,9 W7 64 bit)

$('mybutton').addEvent('click', function ()
{
  HM.set('txt1', 'example1');
  HM.set('txt2', 'example2');
});

Proper Credits?

If this plugin is mostly based on somebody else's work, you should provide a proper credit/copyright. Just a friendly hint of a sad developer.

Hierarchy array

Hi, First of all, congrats on the GREAT work! Ill be trying it in my projects from now.

My Web App is a reporting aplication, and it uses AJAX to load reports, when selected from the menu.

I need to do something like Hierarchy tags. Ill do an exemple:

Supose i have 2 functions requested via AJAX. One is for reports, and it have aditional configs (like id) and the other doesnt.

Report A) index.php/#{"page":{"name":"reports","id":"25648"},"something":"111"}
Report B) index.php/#{"page":{"name":"reports","id":"48441"},"something":"111"}
Report B+config) index.php/#{"page":{"name":"reports","id":"48441","vision":"xxx"},"something":"111"}
Help Page) index.php/#{"page":{"name":"help"},"something":"111"}

On the Report B+config, i would like to register something like:
HM.addEvent('page.vision-changed',function...

Note the page.vision syntax. Would it be posible? An array syntax. Maybe only 2 or 3 levels are needed... (no recursion needed)

There is another thing. As the reports are loaded via AJAX, they need to register on the HM to listen to events. But when i load one of them the second time, they register again for listening. So the solution i found was to use HM.removeEvents('-something:changed');
Is there a better way?

If you have more tips on AJAX+HistoryManager, please let me know!

Thx in advance!

Multiple Back Button Clicks Breaks System

Your plugin has been a great help to me.

I only get the last page even though a user may have clicked it two or three times. This occurs when these clicks happen in quick succession. Is this my problem or something that is inherent or something that can be fixed?

thanks!

Peoblems with updateState

Hi arieh,
very good job! I will use your HistoryManager in my site, but I have a problem with your updateState Function. When I add "select":"L1;" and then add "b":"hide" the funktion fire the select-changed event.
But when I add "select":"L1;L2;" and then add "b":"hide" the funktion do not fire the select-changed event. Why?
The second case is the case I want.

Safari problems

Not sure if this works in Safari 3 (Mac), but in Safari 4 it fails. I think you have to unescape the URL in the getHash method (HashListener.js) at line 124 like so:

return unescape(window.location.hash.substr(1));

This should fix the problem.

hashChanged to no hash

Hi Arieh,

This is a great plugin you published here. I'm using the HashListener part for some basic ajax loading and all works well except one little thing :

• When the initial load occurs there is no hash in the URL, for instance http://myweb.site/some/page
• The user clicks a hash link http://myweb.site/some/page#withdata , and HashListener do its magic thing to handle it and load content from Ajax.
• But, if the user go back (through its browser button) to http://myweb.site/some/page the hash diseapears without the "hashChanged" being fired.

I wonder if it is browser limitation, or if there is a way to handle it ?
