Change URL But Don't Go There jQuery

Question

How do I change the current URL with jQuery without reloading the page (to add parameters) so that I can use $_GET[''] in PHP.

Basically, I have a form and I want the user inputs to go to the URL as parameters instead of using the usual $_POST['']. I don't want to use post because I want it to work if the user reloads the page or goes to another page then goes back to this page.

I don't want to reload the page because I have some ajax stuff going on for animations and a reload would interfere with that.

You should look into HTML 5 PushState https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/API/DOM/Manipulating_the_browser_history — mituw16, Aug 17 '14 at 01:49

There's option history.pushState('', 'Title', newHREF); but i don't think you can use $_GET[] after change the url.

Modify the URL without reloading the page
