Angularjs Normal Links with html5Mode

Question

I am working with angularjs in html 5 mode. Which appears to take control of all href\'s on the page. But what if I want to have a link to something within the same domain o

Answer 1

As of Angular v1.3.0 there is a new rewriteLinks configuration option for the location provider. This switches "hijacking" all the links on the page off:

module.config(function ($locationProvider) {
    $locationProvider.html5Mode({
        enabled: true,
        rewriteLinks: false
    });
});

While disablig this behavior for all links may not be your intention, I'm posting this for others who, like me, want to use $location in html5 mode only to change the URL without affecting all links.
