Multiple path tab setting -> go back

When clicking a button I immediately set three url paths: tab1, tab2, tab3.
When the user clicks the back button in the browser I want the user to go the page where the user was when the button was clicked.
but the user is redirected to the tab1,tab2 url. [see video](https://vimeo.com/1043287886/ce6ed3573f?ts=0&share=copy)

how can I go immediately to the original page (without refreshing the page)? see [test page](https://toddle.dev/projects/turquoise_o_en_lars_permanent_chicken/branches/start/components/test?leftpanel=design&canvas-width=800&canvas-height=800&rightpanel=events)
thanks

When you update part of the URL path you also update the browser’s history, when you update a quest param you do not.

If you change the parameters that should not affect the path to be query parameters this won’t happen

@Andreas Møller I am not sure I understand. why in [this ](https://vimeo.com/1043943801/235c69e4d7?ts=0&share=copy)case there are many path parameters changes but the history shows only one entry? I think the same is true in bubble: it only shows one entry in the history when you change multiple path parameters. thanks

You are using two actions to update the parameters, so it updates the history twice
You can use goToUrl to do a single update, but that will cause a page reload

hmmm I am not sure how I can update parameters all at once. when I set param1=param1/param2 then it evaluates literally and thus parameter2=null

but that is my concern. I want to upload multiple path parameters without reloading the page. can I achieve this in toddle rn? thanks

No that is not possible. The best option would be to change some of the parameters to be query parameters

ok thanks. no, I want them to be path parameters.

Can you calculate the values before setting the parameters?

I would like to better understand you use case. Do you think you could record a short video explaining it?

think of twitter. when I click a tweet from homw (https://x.com/home) I want to go directly to (https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1875538271746634165) such that when the user click back it redirects to https://x.com/home directly

Why are your paths reliant on another? param1=param2

it is just a wrong naming convention sorry. should be param1=value1

If you want to set the entire URL at once, you'd have to concat the entire thing before setting it
Otherwise, it's as Andreas said, each action will cause a history update

but concatenation -> go to url -> page reload, right?

The entire thing could be a single param if you're really against reloads

so a single param (which would look like param1/param2/param3) and then I have some variables that say:
var1=param1.... right?

Any particular reason why you are building this as an SPA instead of using seperate pages?

I actually tried to build it in separate pages initially, but when I went from page to page, the tabs of the sidebar (a reusable) showed "null" for a split second and then it showed the values.
and I am not sure how going back behavior from page to page (e.g. if the page is where it was left)
and I think twitter and similar are built as spa

@Andreas Møller it is just this behavior in [the dashy template](https://dashy_dashboard.toddle.site/) https://vimeo.com/1043948095/4734279e53?ts=0&share=copy

but yeah, the flick on the sidebar can be solved simply by setting the values of the tabs in the component rather than as an attributes
