Remove URL parameters without refreshing page

Question

I am trying to remove everything after the \"?\" in the browser url on document ready.

Here is what I am trying:

jQuery(document).ready(function($)          


        

Answer 1

To clear out all the parameters, without doing a page refresh, AND if you are using HTML5, then you can do this:

history.pushState({}, '', 'index.html' ); //replace 'index.html' with whatever your page name is

This will add an entry in the browser history. You could also consider replaceState if you don't wan't to add a new entry and just want to replace the old entry.
