Anchor link with complete URL

[Anke]

Hi,

thanks for this neat script. Using a CMS I need to add the URL to the anchor name in the link, so I changed line 70 from
.attr('href', '#' + anchorName)
to
.attr('href', window.location + '#' + anchorName).

EDIT:
The above change of code seemed to be working well at first, but now I realise that something isn't working well. Clicking on another link now, the anchor is being added to the URL - http://mydomain.com/mypage.html#toc38#toc19. Refreshing the page adds yet another anchor to the URL etc.

Did I trigger this behavior by adding window.location? Is there a solution for this?

I'd very much appreciate your help,
Anke

Hi @Anke, did you solve this issue in any way?

Uh, thank you for your reply, but honestly - I don't know. I might have, but might just as well have implemented another script. Sorry.

Really hacky solution, but I wanted something simple rather than sinking any time into it. I ended up with:

    $('.toc').on('click', 'a', function() {
        var fixedUrl = window.location.href.split('#')[0] + $(this).attr('href');
        setTimeout(function() {
            window.location.replace(fixedUrl);
        }, 600);
    });

The timer is for the url to update once the smooth scroll has finished + a lil bit of padding. Awkward, but works. @030media @Anke

Thanks a lot, I will give it a try once I have to use a TOC again!

Great, I'll try that. Thanks!
