I have an url as below 

http://www.something.com/sometest/test/#registration

some logic is written based on #registration for IE.

Now as I am using angular js and it is redirecting as follows which is breaking the logic.

http://www.something.com/sometest/test/#/registration

I thought of html5 mode but it is creating other issues like links in my page are not working only the url is getting updated(which is expected when we use html5mode I guess). So, I dont want to use html5mode. I just want to stop that # thing from redirecting to /#/.

please let me know how to disable this redirecting

Note: I am not using routing and I don't need it. I dont want to use html5mode as well. This is and existing implementation and I need to use it in angular js app to open a popup or something.

I don´t know if this can help you but check this answer stackoverflow.com/questions/32626081/… – stalin 16 hours ago
    
I fixed the issue myself. It was due the injection of $location service to the controller. – Susheel Singh 15 hours ago

If your application runs under /sales/ try to set the base path in your index.html and switch on html5Mode:

<base href="/sales/index.html" />

otherwise, 

<base href="/" />

If you're using IE9, then HTML5mode will work as IE9 is not supporting HTML5 History API

function supports_history_api() {
  return !!(window.history && history.pushState);
}

see using $location

This will work!

Cheers :)

I already mentioned in my question I dont want to use html5mode – Susheel Singh 17 hours ago
    
I am sure you're doing something wrong, plus your post isn't saying you don't want to use html5mode. it says you have used but didn't work – varit05 17 hours ago

I fixed the issue myself. It was due the injection of $location service to the controller.

//issue
app.controller("testController", ["$scope", "$location", function($scope, $location) {

}]);

I removed the $location service from the controller and the issue was resolved. 

//resolved
app.controller("testController", ["$scope", function($scope) {

}]);
