How to delete hashtag in URL suffix

Question

How can I remove the hashtag which is used as a null link when triggering javascript?

What I mean is, <a href="#">link</a> to trigger a javascript content, making the url http://whatever.com/index.html#.

How can I get rid of the # without removing it from the <a> attribute?

How is `addthis_config` used for anything that has something to do with urls? — Bergi, May 21 '14 at 12:04
What do you mean by "null link"? Where is your URL from that you want the hash portion removed? — Bergi, May 21 '14 at 12:05
Can you show us how the javascript content is triggered? Hint: `preventDefault()` — Bergi, May 21 '14 at 12:10
you can read/set location.href, which represents you're url. — MJB, May 21 '14 at 12:20

Only problem is I can't find the location of it since it is embedded into a CMS – NEXTGENINTL May 21 '14 at 12:11
@RoyiNamir my understanding is OP wants an empty href content. Since the link is handled in JS. – Prasanna May 21 '14 at 12:13
