How to rewrite URL without refresh, like GitHub.com

let say I have variable in Javascript

var currentpage = 0;

my address page address is www.xyz.com/page/1

when I click somewhere and js function trigger

currentpage = 1
//Here I want to change/rewrite www.xyz.com/page/2
//Without redirecting to this page

To clarify, you're trying to rewrite the URL displayed in the browser bar without actually changing the page that you're on? — arychj, Apr 29 '11 at 20:38

You can't. You have to use the '#' or '#!' notation and pass the page number after it, then do trigger some js on load to figure out which page to display.
