The go()
method of the History
interface loads a specific page from the session history. You can use it to move forwards and backwards through the history depending on the value of a parameter.
This method is asynchronous. Add a listener for the popstate
event in order to determine when the navigation has completed.
delta
Optional
The position in the history to which you want to move, relative to the current page. A negative value moves backwards, a positive value moves forwards. So, for example, history.go(2)
moves forward two pages and history.go(-2)
moves back two pages. If no value is passed or if delta
equals 0, it has the same result as calling location.reload()
.
None (undefined
