One Page Website - Url Waypoints

I'm trying to create a one page website with jQuery. i'm trying to figure out how I change the URL of the website (E.g. www.test.be) when I click the right menu item. Right now it just gives (www.test.be/#) But I'd like it to say (www.test.be/work) for example. Also when I refresh I'd like the website to be on the page where the user was, not the first page. Would this be possible to achieve?

While you can do this with jQuery alone, it would be an uphill struggle. You're better off using a client-side MVC framework.

There are a number of client-side MVC frameworks available that should do this. I generally use Backbone.js, and using its routing you would easily be able to accomplish this kind of thing. It makes it very easy to define client-side routes with hashes and assign views to those routes. As long as you don't mind the URL being www.test.be/#work, that will be fine

You might also want to check out AngularJS as an alternative, but I can't speak for how easy it would be to implement this in Angular.
