onpopstate event

See original GitHub issue

Hello,

Is it possible to latch onto the window.onpopstate event Navigo uses for forward/back buttons? I can use it easily enough, but then navigo stops working 😃

I have a page transition in this project, so it’s not possible to re-render the menu in this case. I’m manually updating the .active class on the menu with jQuery, which works fine, except for the forward/back browser buttons.

Was thinking a custom event could be fired onpopstate with the window.location.pathname passed to it, but interested in your thoughts.

Thanks.

This will pollute your route handlers but can be solved with partial execution (or currying).
