Yes & no. Realistically you'd have to use hashbang urls - but you could use HTAccess to rewrite urls.

I wrote a tutorial on history.pushstate and jQuery.

Yup. You'd use an if statement to make sure it only AJAXed certain links. Or, alternatively, make your entire site AJAX!

@rosspenman I actually tried Ajaxing my site initially but didn't want to go that route. I used this plugin but somehow completely forgot about it. I think I'll try it first since it's quite easy to implement.

Thanks for your help. I'll post back if I get it working.

I believe what I have to do is use .load() instead. I assume I just use the arrow link for the URL.

@HugoGiraudel I am trying to use Ajax for my blog posts. I'd like them to slide across the page (like a slideshow) when clicking the pagination arrows. I hope that makes it clearer.

@TheDoc above I posted that if you go to the News page and then try to go to a different page, it acts as an iframe loading the entire site in that little section.

If you want to load the article without affecting anything other than <div class='ajax'>, I would suggest to use JSON:

var startIndex = 0;
$('button').on("click", function() {
    startIndex++;
    $.ajax({
        url: 'json-feed-url?start-index=' + (startIndex*3),
        type: 'get',
        dataType: 'jsonp',
        success: function(data) {
           var skeleton = "";

            // proccess...

           $('.ajax').append(skeleton); // append the processed data

        },
        error: function() {
            alert('Error loading feed!');
        }
    });
}).trigger("click");

There's should be some JSON index parameters that can be used to load the data gradually.

It's just, I don't know about the JSON in Wordpress (or Kirby?). I used to handle Blogger JSON.

Edit: Sorry, so it's already working. Just ignore this answer.

I believe the problem is that Ajax is targeting ALL anchor links instead of my pagination links.
