Updating address bar with new URL without hash or reloading the page


I either dreamt about chrome (dev channel) implementing a way to update the address bar via javascript (the path, not domain) without reloading the page or they really have done this...



However...I can't find the article I think I read.



Am I crazy or is there a way to do this [in chrome]?



p.s. I'm not talking about window.location.hash (et al)...basically if the above exists the answer to this question will be untrue.

  1. Found it!

    Read all about it here: http://www.spoiledmilk.dk/blog/?p=1922. For a more in-depth look into pushState/replaceState/popstate go here (https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/Manipulating_the_browser_history).

    and the code:

    window.history.pushState("object or string", "Title", "/new-url");


    See my answer to this question for more info.

Slow Android emulator

I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?
