If you want to make use of the javascript History object then you must make use of the JavaScript object which is accessible through the history property of a window object. It also provide you the property of the window.history which is an array of URL strings which reflect the entries in the History object. It also consist the different array of URLs. You can simply change the running URL by simply changing the entry from it. For that you simply make use of the History object by using the location.replace method.
