$location

[Paul Knaggs]

Hi I am looking for help with a hybrid web app 

The format is on a php dynamic template 

I have coded in a Angular splash screen that works well but when I open a linked page on return it refreshes and the splash screen rerenders.

This is the code I am using right now, is there an alternative so the page does not refresh on return.

the two links below work from ng-click

                    var _gaq = _gaq || [];

                    var app = angular.module('landingApp', []);

                    app.config(function($locationProvider) {

                        // use the HTML5 History API

                        $locationProvider.html5Mode(true);

                    });

                    app.controller('landingController', function($scope, $window) {

                        $scope.goto_viewdetail = function(item) {

                            $window.location = '/viewdetail.php?qrcode='+item;

                        };

                        $scope.goto_sendemail = function(item) {

                            $window.location = '/sendemail.php?qrcode='+item;

                        }

                    });

Hi Paul,

Setting $windows.location will cause a browser refresh, so unless you are storing some state info into a persistent storage(cookie/localStorage/indeDB/..), your app will get's completely reinitialized.

I think you need to use the $location service instead.

Thanks for your reply I have tried $location unfortunately it won't work with my setup,

But thanks for the advice I am still working on it but have decided to try a different method I will scrap the linked page and place it's content in a div with ng-view or show and hide from ng-click.
