Page sometimes appending an additional slash?

[quirkles]

Hi, so my routing setup looks like this:

    page('/login', function () {
      // render the login page
      console.log(page.current);
    });
    page('/home', function () {
      // render my home page
      console.log(page.current);
    });
    page('*', function () {
      console.log(page.current);
      // catchall
    });
    page.start({
      hashbang: true
    });

If I use page('/home') in my code, no problems

if i just enter http://mysite.com/#!/home then i hit the catchall callback and the value of page.current is '//home' with two slashes, if i just hit enter in the address bar again then it hits the '/home' callback, as expected.

So what gives? what am I doing wrong

When editing the URL manually from the browser, it breaks in the same way for me too.

I'm running into the same issue. Looks like this PR fixes this: #322

I stopped using hashbang, it's too buggy. There's an issue about removing it #229
I just use page.base('/#') instead (personally I don't even want the bang anyway)

Interesting, yeah I implemented my own work around where I catch 404's and see if they are equal to '/' plus an existing route. Very ugly but Necessary until this gets fixed.

@farzher ah sweet. page.base('/#') seems to good workaround. Thanks.

[quirkles]

Gonna try that too.

[farzher]

You could even put page.base('/#!') if you really wanted :)

I believe this has been fixed by a recent version. I was unable to create it upon trying. Please try yourself using 1.8.0 and let me know if it's still an issue. Thanks!
