Temporarily disable JS event & learning how JS event handling works?

It's running asynchronously. Try this: window. Onhashchange = null; window.location.

Hash = "this_should_not_concern_you"; setTimeout( function() { window. Onhashchange = function() {alert('chunky bacon')};}, 500 ); The 500ms delay gives it enough time to set the handler after the hash is changed. (Even 0ms would probably be enough, though, to stack the events.).

WooooWE is that an ugly solution! ... but it works! – 糞_爺 Jun 30 at 15:22 I can't disagree.

:-) – Jed Jun 30 at 15:24 Good point on the 0ms thing. I didn't notice that at first. – 糞_爺 Jun 30 at 15:30.

You're code is all part of one event loop and because of that, when the event fires the next loop, your handler is in place. A simplified example of an event loop would be: Handle Events Clear call stack Wait for events (back to step one) When you change the hash in the same event loop as you're assigning the callback, it isn't processed until the next event loop, which already has it sitting there, waiting for events. Window.location.

Hash = 'test1'; window. Onhashchange = function() { console. Log(window.location.

Hash); }; window.location. Hash = 'test2'; This code will log #test2 twice. The handler fires twice, but the value once the handler has fired is test2, both times.

– 糞_爺 Jun 30 at 14:43 You need to process it after the event has fired, Jed's idea of setting a timeout to push it into the next event loop would work. – Robert Jun 30 at 14:49.

Window. Onhashchange = null; window.location. Hash = "this_should_not_concern_you"; window.

Onhashchange = function() { window. Onhashchange = function() {alert('chunky bacon')}; }; window.location. Hash = "this_should.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
