ok, so… what i’m really looking for here is the idea. this is something some of you know how to do easily, and use all the time… but as a novice, i’m trying to learn the proper techniques.

I’m at the stage where I can build functioning classes, and use custom event listeners for activity through out a website… but i’ve been teaching myself so i’m sure I’m missing some important stuff.

how do you change pages in a website??.. I mean I can’t always create a function for each page and just store the active page in a string, can I? Then I end up writing out every possibility. I know it has to do with having some kind of other class to handle the page change I think… but yeah

I’d be so happy if someone just gave me a nudge in the right direction.
