popstate event handler seems not to work

Question

I\'m having a problem with a \'popstate\' event handler, this is my code:

window.addEventListener(\"popstate\", function (event){
    if (event.state) {
             


        

Answer 1

No it will not,

As per MDN documentation

Note that just calling history.pushState() or history.replaceState() won't trigger a popstate event. The popstate event is only triggered by doing a browser action such as a click on the back button (or calling history.back() in JavaScript).

Again as per this question the popstate event is not triggered in Chrome when you call pushState().
