location: hash property

The hash property of the Location interface returns a string containing a '#' followed by the fragment identifier of the URL — the ID on the page that the URL is trying to target.

The fragment is not URL decoded. If the URL does not have a fragment identifier, this property contains an empty string, "".

Value

A string.
