I'm trying to decide how I want some data loaded on a site with multiple pages. I can't decide whether I want to use cookies or continue storing data in the hash of the URL. I do run into issues with using the hash with some pages on my site, but I feel switching to cookies would make linking to pages with the data much more difficult (i.e. no sharing of pages). URL Hash Pros URL Hash Cons Cookies Pros Cookies Cons I'm thinking I probably don't want to switch to using the search part of the URL as that loads the page whereas I'm trying to keep page loading to a minimum (especially when the data is changed). If you want to see the site, click here. Enter "acidic.css" (no quotation marks) into the textbox and click enter. Notice the URL. Then, try this page which uses cookies. Enter "acidic.css" the same as before. Notice the URL now. 
 * share pages easily
 * hash needed for other uses at times
 * doesn't use hash so hash left open
 * can't easily share data
