Use history.replaceState or history.pushState. It's fairly well supported, and does what you want. The former will not insert a new history entry and just modify the current one, while the latter adds a new history entry for the new URL. The first two parameters are not important, the third is what changes the url

$(document).ready(function(){
   var href = window.location.href,
       newUrl = href.substring(0, href.indexOf('&'))
   window.history.replaceState({}, '', newUrl);
});
