Change url without reloading the page

Question

How can I pass from this type of url:

http://domain.com

To this type:

http://domain.com/#0123456789

Without reloading the page.

I do not want to use the HTML5 window.history.replaceState function, as it does not work with the older versions of Internet Explorer.

the hash link is easy and would work in all browsers. The url replacement is not possible in old browsers. caniuse.com/#search=history I would just fallback on hash links in IE9... — Dominik

http://domain.com/#0123456789 just make this a hyperlink - the page should not be reloaded as it is just a anchor link within the page. — Daniel

I found my answer:

location.hash = "0123456789";

Sorry to answer my own question...but no answer gave the right point.

Like this:

window.location += "/#/123456";
console.log(location.hash);
