An event handler for the popstate event on the window.

A popstate event is dispatched to the window every time the active history entry changes between two history entries for the same document. If the history entry being activated was created by a call to history.pushState() or was affected by a call to history.replaceState(), the popstate event's state property contains a copy of the history entry's state object.

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 clicking on the back button (or calling history.back() in JavaScript). And the event is only triggered when the user navigates between two history entries for the same document.

Browsers tend to handle the popstate event differently on page load. Chrome and Safari always emit a popstate event on page load, but Firefox doesn't.

Syntax

window.onpopstate = funcRef;
  • funcRef is a handler function.

The popstate event

As an example, a page at https://example.com/example.html running the following code will generate alerts as indicated:

window.onpopstate = function(event) {
  alert("location: " + document.location + ", state: " + JSON.stringify(event.state));
};

history.pushState({page: 1}, "title 1", "?page=1");
history.pushState({page: 2}, "title 2", "?page=2");
history.replaceState({page: 3}, "title 3", "?page=3");
history.back(); // alerts "location: https://example.com/example.html?page=1, state: {"page":1}"
history.back(); // alerts "location: https://example.com/example.html, state: null
history.go(2);  // alerts "location: https://example.com/example.html?page=3, state: {"page":3}

Note that even though the original history entry (for https://example.com/example.html) has no state object associated with it, a popstate event is still fired when we activate that entry after the second call to history.back().
