UrlRewrite Plugin for JQuery

[Paul Tuckey]

Hi,

I've created a plugin for JQuery to allow simple url rewriting and url
"listening", this is best demonstrated in an example:

// rewrite url's person.jsp?id=123 to #person/123/view
$.urlrewrite(/person\.jsp\?id=([0-9]+)/, "#person/$1/view");

// when url is #person/123/view/
$.urllisten(/#person\/([0-9]+)\/view/, function(num) {
// show element id="person123"
$("#person" + num).show();
});

Here is the plugin:
http://urlrewritefilter.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/src/js/jquery.urlrewrite.js

And here is an example of usage:

Feedback welcome!

Cheers,
Paul.
