I'm using the jquery history plugin in a simple demo that loads in a section of a specific page each time you click a nav item, what i've found though is that each time I click a new link the History.Adapter.bind(window, 'statechange', function()
code is duplicated. Is it possible to unbind this every time the code has finished inside this function or can anyone advise where I may be going wrong with this?
My test page http://kylehouston.com/_testing/history/page1.html
JS
navLink.on('click', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var el = $(this);
//get the href and remove begining /
url = el.attr('href')
.slice(1);
//do a check to see if this link is already active
if (el.hasClass('is-active')) {
return false;
}
navLink.removeClass('is-active');
el.addClass('is-active');
History.pushState(null, null, url);
// Bind to StateChange Event
History.Adapter.bind(window, 'statechange', function() {
var State = History.getState();
mainContent.fadeOut(function() {
$(this)
.empty();
console.log('this ran');
preloader.fadeIn();
loadContent(mainContent, location.pathname);
});
History.Adapter.unbind();
});
//empty mainContent then empty it
mainContent.fadeOut(function() {
$(this)
.empty();
//display preloader
preloader.fadeIn();
//check if content already exists in pages{} if not then make call then save to pages{} or retrieve from pages{} if already exists
loadContent(mainContent, url);
});
});
